Täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi

Täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi refers to the legal grounds upon which enforcement actions can be initiated in Finnish law. These grounds are the prerequisites that must be met before a creditor can compel a debtor to fulfill their obligations, typically through judicial or administrative means. The primary purpose of täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi is to ensure that enforcement is only carried out based on established and legally recognized claims.

The most common täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi include legally binding court judgments, such as a final judgment (lainvoimainen tuomio) or a default judgment (käräjäoikeuden päätös). Other valid grounds include enforcement decrees (täytäntöönpanomääräys) issued by a bailiff (ulosottomies) or an enforcement authority, as well as certain administrative decisions that have acquired legal force. Agreements that have been notarized and declared enforceable, such as certain loan agreements, can also serve as täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi.

The existence of a valid täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi is crucial for the legitimacy of any enforcement activity. Without one, any attempt to seize assets or compel payment would be unlawful. The Finnish Enforcement Code (ulosottolaki) meticulously outlines the types of documents and decisions that qualify as täytäntöönpanoperusteiksi and the procedures for their application. This ensures a structured and fair process for both creditors seeking to realize their claims and debtors facing enforcement actions.
