What does a seizure of movable property mean?

This means that a creditor can have your goods, such as furniture, your car or TV, seized via a bailiff. This is done to collect your debt. If you are not at home or do not open the door, the bailiff can still enter your home with the help of the police to make an inventory.

Can all goods be seized?

No. Goods that you need for a normal life, such as a bed, table, chairs or a refrigerator, are priceless. Children's textbooks and materials must also not be confiscated.

What can I do if I disagree with the batter?

If you find that certain items have been wrongly seized, you must report this to the bailiff as soon as possible, no later than 15 days after receiving the official attachment document. The bailiff will then submit your objections to the attachment judge, who will make a final decision about this.

Can I still prevent the sale of my stuff?

Of course, you can always pay or make a payment arrangement. Get in touch as soon as possible with the bailiff to stop selling your goods.

Can my partner or roommate's belongings also be confiscated?

Yes. If the bailiff finds goods at your address, it is assumed that they are yours. If your partner or roommate can prove that the items belong to him or her (for example with purchase invoices), those goods cannot be seized. First, contact Modero to find a real solution. If the real owner of the goods wants to assert his rights, he can initiate the revindication procedure. For this procedure, it is wise to seek legal help.

I still have questions. Where can I go?
