From 1 January 2009 Irish consumers will be able to make use of a specific procedure to pursue small claims (less than €2000) against suppliers or service providers from other EU countries, with the exception of Denmark.
The scheme is intended to simplify and reduce costs for cross-border small claims litigation in civil and commercial matters. Judgments delivered under the procedure are recognised and enforceable in Member States without the need for a declaration of enforceability. The European Small Claims procedure does not replace Ireland’s existing small claims procedures and is optional and offered as an alternative to Member States national laws. The Superior Court Rules Committee has made rules which deal with the operation of the European Order for Payment procedure within the Irish courts system.
