Payment terms

The enforcement officer will inform the person making the highest purchase offer whether the offer can be accepted. If the offer can be accepted, the buyer pays the full purchase price by bank transfer to the Enforcement Authority’s official funds account. Once the payment appears in the official funds account, the enforcement officer issues the sales decision, which is delivered to the parties concerned. The purchase price cannot be paid by credit card.

Deposit: Unless the full purchase price is paid immediately, the buyer must pay 20% of the purchase price immediately as a deposit.

Payment period: If necessary, a payment period of no more than six weeks from the sales decision may be granted for the remaining purchase price. In that case, annual interest on the full purchase price is payable for the entire payment period from the date of sale until the end of the payment period. The reference interest rate is currently 2.50%. If payment is not made within the granted payment period, default interest is charged thereafter; it is currently 9.50% per annum.
