Do the maths, before you guess
What may you lawfully add to the claim? How much interest has accrued? Is it about to become time-barred? And what does your payment time cost in tied-up capital?
Four figures that decide the case
Three of them belong to the single claim — what may be added, what has accrued, and how long you have left. The fourth belongs to the portfolio: what your payment time ties up.
- DKK 100 per reminder
Reminder fees and costs
Reminder fee, compensation fee and collection costs on one specific claim.
- + 8 pct. points
Default interest
The interest from due date to today — calculated on the principal, as it should be.
- 3 years / 10 years
Limitation
When the limitation period expires — and what it takes to interrupt it.
- Tied-up capital
DSO and tied-up capital
DSO, the gap to your payment terms — and what it ties up in working capital.
The figures the calculators use
These rates are statutory ceilings, not guide prices. They live in one place in the code, so the four calculators cannot end up working from different numbers.

It all hangs together
The glossary explains the term, the template hands you the letter, and the articles tell you what to do — and what it costs to do nothing. The three point to one another, so you need not search anywhere else.
