About this tool

Korean Payment Order Petition Generator (jigeup) drafts an Order-for-Payment petition under Civil Procedure Act §462+ in 5 minutes. Enter creditor / debtor info, claim amount, due date, and facts; the tool produces (1) scenario-specific body templates (loan, goods, wages, deposit, agreed sum), (2) auto-computed stamp duty (claim × 1/10, with 10% e-filing discount), (3) auto service fees (parties × ₩6,500 × 5 rounds), (4) interest start date and 5–6% statutory rate, (5) text compatible with the Supreme Court e-filing system (ecfs.scourt.go.kr), and (6) jurisdiction guidance. Costs only 1/10 of regular litigation fees up front — the typical first move for small-claim recovery.

Use cases

Scenario 1

Personal-loan recovery

For a ₩5M loan to a friend that’s now 6 months overdue, attach the IOU + transfer history and start with a payment order before full litigation.

Scenario 2

Goods receivables

For a ₩12M unpaid B2B receivable, certified mail first, then a payment order if unresolved — court fees at just 10% of full litigation.

Scenario 3

Wage arrears claim

A former employee owed 3 months of wages files a payment order in parallel with a labor-board complaint to accelerate collection.

Scenario 4

Deposit return

A tenant whose deposit isn’t returned after lease end registers the tenancy first, then files a payment order as the first step toward enforcement.

Frequently asked

Q. When should I use a payment order?
A. It’s the typical first move when certified mail goes unanswered and the debtor isn’t expected to dispute. Stamp duty is 1/10 of regular litigation and a decision arrives in 2–4 weeks.
Q. What if the debtor files an objection?
A. On objection, the case auto-converts to regular litigation. The stamp duty already paid counts toward the full amount; only the remaining 9/10 needs to be paid. Service fees also carry over.
Q. What if I don’t know the debtor’s address?
A. Payment orders don’t allow service by publication, so actual delivery is required. If the address is unknown, file a regular suit (which permits publication-service) instead.
Q. Can I paste the output into the e-court system?
A. Yes. The output is compatible with ecfs.scourt.go.kr — paste it directly into the relief-sought and cause-of-action fields.
