DECOL Asia — how we recover receivables

Our process
1. Placement
Case placed via Decol24. APAC handler assigned by jurisdiction and language.
2. Native-language outreach

3. Local escalation
Partner counsel files locally — Statutory Demand (SG/HK), MSMED arbitration (India), Section 138 (India), or PRC court.
4. Cross-border enforcement
HK judgments enforceable in mainland China; SG judgments recognised across Commonwealth Asia.
Legal framework
Singapore's Small Claims Tribunals handle disputes up to S$20,000; larger claims go through the State Courts (Magistrates' Court) or High Court. Hong Kong offers the District Court and Court of First Instance, with judgments enforceable in mainland China under the 2019 arrangement. India's MSMED Act provides fast-track arbitration for supplier claims. Japan and Korea rely heavily on formal demand letters (naiyō shōmei yūbin / naeyongjeungmyeong) as pre-litigation steps.

FAQ
How enforceable is a Hong Kong judgment in mainland China?
Under the 2019 Hong Kong–PRC Arrangement on Reciprocal Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters, most HK judgments are directly enforceable in the mainland — a major shift from the pre-2019 position.
Do you handle India MSMED claims?
Yes — MSMED Act fast-track arbitration is one of the most effective routes for micro, small and medium enterprises to recover B2B invoices from larger Indian buyers, typically within 90 days.
