Recovering Unpaid Invoices from Australian Companies for Chinese Exporters
Australian debt collection for Chinese businesses often involves more than an unpaid invoice. The order, shipment and payment correspondence need to tell a consistent story: which Australian business purchased the goods, what was supplied and why the agreed payment remains outstanding.
Read More
Provide the purchase order, accepted quotation or contract, invoices, packing lists and available shipping or delivery records. Include later changes to quantities, specifications or payment terms. If the Australian buyer acknowledges receiving the goods but requests more time, retain that correspondence with the account records.
Where the buyer raises a quality or shortage complaint, provide the complaint and your response together. Identify the goods affected, the amount disputed and any credit or replacement already agreed. A complaint about one shipment should be distinguished from other unpaid invoices rather than treated as an explanation for the entire balance.
Payment records also need to be clear. State the invoicing currency, payments received and remaining balance. If more than one business was involved in ordering, importing or receiving the goods, explain each party’s role without assuming that the delivery recipient is the debtor.
For Chinese exporters seeking to recover unpaid invoices from Australian companies, the next step is an assessment of the documents and the debtor’s response. Any proposed settlement should be referred to the authorised creditor representative. If collection does not resolve the matter, assess the likely legal expense and prospects of receiving payment before committing further funds.
