You have to apply for the European order for payment using the form"Form A - Application for a European order for payment".
The form explains whether the European order for payment procedure is applicable in your case and helps you to find the right court. You have to indicate the parties and the type and amount of the claim as well as the evidence. You can make the application without a lawyer.
How, in which language and by which means you can file the application may vary depending on the Member State.
For Germany, you can obtain further information from the Wedding district court in Berlin, which is centrally responsible for the European order for payment procedure.
If you have filed the application properly, the court will issue the European order for payment within 30 days and serve it on the debtor. The debtor can lodge a statement of opposition against the European order for payment within 30 days. In this case, the proceedings will continue before the competent courts according to the national rules of civil proceedings.

Without the opposition, the European order for payment can be enforced throughout the EU except in Denmark.
