FAQ

At what address does the court serve the statement of claim?: After checking whether the statement of claim fulfills formal requirements the court proceeds to serve it on the defendant.

The statement of claim is served on the registered office address in case of entities and on the domicile address in case of individuals.

Entrepreneurs are obliged to register all changes of their address. If they fail to do so, service made to the address indicated in the proper register is deemed effective. The returned statement of claim is left on the court files as if service had been effected. If the entrepreneur is an individual, service is made by the court to the domicile address.
