The Notice of Late Payment is a crucial document in Australian business operations, serving as a formal communication tool when payments become overdue. It is typically issued after the payment term specified in an invoice has expired, usually between 7 to 30 days after the initial due date. This document must comply with Australian legislation, including the Payment Times Reporting Act 2020 and relevant provisions of the Australian Consumer Law. The notice should be drafted to maintain professional relationships while clearly communicating the urgency of payment and potential consequences of non-payment. It includes essential information such as invoice details, amount owed, duration of lateness, and payment instructions, while adhering to Australian privacy laws and debt collection guidelines. The document can be escalated from an initial reminder to a final notice before legal action, with appropriate terminology and warnings adjusted accordingly.
