The decree no. 2026-96 of 16 february 2026 amends the order for payment procedure as follows:

• The creditor now has a 3 months delay (instead of 6 months) to have the order for payment served on the debtor by the Commissioner of Justice.
• The creditor no longer has to claim certificate of non-opposition from the debtor to the registry for the order to become an enforceable instrument. From now on it is the registry of the judicial court that transmits thenotice of objection the debtor by registered letter with or by electronic means within 1 month of its receipt. As a reminder, in commercial matters, in the event of opposition by the debtor, the registry of the commercial court informs the creditor by asking him to record opposition costs.
• The order becomes an enforceable instrument upon expiry of a period of 2 months if the creditor has not received a notice of objection or an invitation to record the costs of the objection.

This reform applies to orders for payment issued on or after 1^er September 2026.
