§ 7-6. Documentation upon completed debt settlement

When the debt settlement period (gjeldsordningsperiode) has expired, a creditor (fordringshaver) whose claim (fordring) was covered by the debt settlement (gjeldsordning) may demand that the debtor (skyldner) prove that the debtor has fulfilled their obligations under the settlement.

What does this mean?

When the debt settlement period is over, a creditor who was part of the settlement can ask the debtor to show that the obligations have been met. The debtor must then document this.

The rule gives creditors a way to check at the end of the process. The demand is directed at the debtor, and it is up to the creditor to use this option. The law does not specify in detail what evidence is sufficient. It comes between § 7-5 on legal costs and § 7-7 on claims that lapse. The creditor must have been part of the settlement themselves to be able to make the demand.
