What it means for you
This is the main way money is actually collected in Türkiye. A payment order is served on the debtor; if they do not file a valid objection in time, the file can move on toward seizing assets. It is faster and cheaper than starting with a court case.
Commonly confused with
It is not a court judgment. An enforcement proceeding runs through an administrative Enforcement Office. If the debtor objects, the proceeding stops and the dispute usually has to go to court to continue.
