If the other party does not respond, the judicial officer can obtain an enforceable title after one month and eight days and force the debtor to pay. He does this by taking measures, such as seizure and, in extreme cases, a public sale.
If the procedure reaches that stage, there is a risk of additional costs. After all, the advance paid covers all costs up to the moment the title is obtained. These additional costs are always recovered from the debtor. Only when the debtor goes into bankruptcy or WCO, is there a chance that we will have to recover these costs from you. However, we continuously monitor the debtor's solvency. If we think that the chance of these additional costs is real, we will always contact you. At that moment, you have the chance to stop the procedure without additional costs. Our point of departure is that you never risk additional costs without us explicitly informing you. Since we do an extensive solvency check at the start of each procedure, this situation is, fortunately, rare.
