Abstract

The European Small Claims Procedure was introduced by EU Regulation 861/2007 and applies
between all Member States of the European Union except Denmark. This procedure can be used for
claims up to the value of €5000 and is a written procedure, unless an oral hearing is considered
necessary by the court. The European Small Claims Procedure is an alternative to national procedures.
A judgment for this procedure is recognised and enforceable in another EU country and cannot be
opposed (unless there are inconsistences with an existing judgment in the other EU country between
the same parties). The purpose of the European Small Claims Procedure is to harmonize national
litigation. Precisely because of this the subject of analysis of this paper are the basic features of the
European Small Claims Procedure, benefits that this procedure offers and the Amendment of
Regulation 861/2007 with Regulation 2015/2421.
