# International debt collection

In the event that the pre-trial collection turns out to be ineffective, the process goes into the stage of judicial collection, which is carried out, as a rule, in accordance with local procedural norms. In practice, there are cases when the court procedure must be carried out either in the court of the creditor's country, or in a certain international arbitration. But such cases are possible only when such jurisdiction was determined by the parties to the dispute in the contract they concluded.

The resolution of an international dispute in the national court of the creditor or in the international arbitration of a third country is a longer and more complicated process of debt collection, since in the country of the debtor, in any case, there is a need to organize additional litigation in regards to the legalization of a foreign court decision.

After receiving the decision of the court of the country of the debtor or after the legalization of the foreign decision of the court, the process of overseas debt collection goes into the stage of compulsory execution of the court decision, at which the assets and accounts of the debtor are seized, with their subsequent implementation to pay off the debt.

If the debtor's assets are not enough to pay off the debt, or such assets disappeared as a result of planned actions by the managers or owners of legal entities, then the collection process can be continued by declaring the debtor bankrupt or initiating criminal prosecution of the guilty persons.
