Reminder template

A dunning template is a template for your dunning notices.

The purpose of the reminder template is to ensure consistency in your reminders - and not least to make it easy for your accountant or yourself to send out reminders when needed.

With a dunning template, you don't have to create your reminders from scratch; you can simply change a few things in the template.

You can either create the template yourself, have your accountant create one, or download it further down in this article.

Why do I need a template for my reminders?

There are many reasons to use a template for your reminders, but first and foremost, you should do it to save time and resources.

Why create something from scratch every time if you can just use a template that contains all the necessary texts and information?

All larger companies use a template for their reminders, some also use the templates available in their accounting software or ERP system.

Requirements, laws and regulations for a dunning template

Basically, there are no major requirements for a dunning template; you can basically design, write and fill out a dunning template exactly as you want - there are no legal requirements for this.

However, we recommend that you include the following information on your reminder:

• Date
• Clear reference to the claim(invoice number, claim amount, possible payment deadline)
• A payment deadline of 10 days (if a reminder fee is charged)

We also recommend that you design your dunning template to look like your other materials. Add a logo, use your letterhead and the like - this way the dunning template looks like a document created by you and your other communication with the customer.
