In addition to the debt paid in the enforcement procedure, the debtor must also reimburse the costs of enforcement to the acting bailiff. The bailiff is entitled to an average cost allowance, travel costs, expenses, service charge for carrying out the execution, and, in the case of the debtor’s performance, a commission on top of these. As a general rule, the service charge is adjusted to the enforceable amount of the case at the time of initiation (amount of claim and all associated costs).

The bailiff is entitled to an average cost allowance in the amount specified by law to cover the costs associated with maintaining his office, travel costs for the action to be implemented outside the office of the bailiff, and can be charged as out-of-pocket expenses, e.g. shipping, storage and postage costs.
