The Letter For Non Payment of Invoice is a crucial business document used in the Nigerian commercial environment when a customer or client has failed to pay an invoice by its due date. This document is typically issued after previous informal reminders have been unsuccessful and before initiating formal legal proceedings. It serves as a formal demand for payment under Nigerian law and can be used as evidence in subsequent legal proceedings if necessary. The letter should comply with Nigerian commercial law requirements and include specific details such as invoice numbers, amounts, dates, payment terms, and clearly stated consequences of non-payment. It's an essential tool for businesses operating in Nigeria to maintain cash flow and enforce payment obligations while following proper legal protocols for debt recovery.
