Summary/Abstract: Since the Amsterdam Treaty has been in force (1 May 1999) the EU very quickly created a civil procedure that meet the requirements of the single market and the European legal space. An accessible and efficient civil procedure is meant to support the freedom of movement of citizens and to equally ensure the effective access to justice in all Member states. To this respect, an important step is the Regulation concerning the European order for payment procedure. This regulation introduces for the first time a unitary procedure of issuance of an order to pay at the European level. This procedure is applicable, according to the legislative attributions of the EC, only in litigations having a trans-border nature.
