De wettelijke betalingstermijn<\/a> is een term die vaak wordt gebruikt bij het opstellen van facturen<\/a> en betalingsafspraken tussen bedrijven en consumenten. Het verwijst naar de tijd die is toegestaan voor betaling van een factuur voordat er wettelijke rente<\/a> verschuldigd is. In dit artikel zullen we de verschillende aspecten van de wettelijke betalingstermijn<\/a> behandelen.<\/span><\/p>\n De wettelijke betalingstermijn is vastgesteld in de Wet betalingstermijnen van 2017 en is 30 dagen. Dit betekent dat een factuur binnen 30 dagen na ontvangst betaald moet worden, tenzij er andere afspraken zijn gemaakt tussen de partijen. In sommige gevallen kan de <\/span>betalingstermijn ook verkort<\/span><\/a> worden. Bijvoorbeeld als er sprake is van <\/span>wanbetaling<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Voor consumenten geldt dezelfde wettelijke betalingstermijn van 30 dagen, tenzij anders overeengekomen. Dit betekent dat bedrijven de factuur binnen 30 dagen na ontvangst moeten betalen, anders zijn ze wettelijke rente<\/a> verschuldigd.<\/span><\/p>\n Voor bedrijven geldt in principe ook een wettelijke betalingstermijn van 30 dagen, tenzij anders overeengekomen. Echter, als het gaat om betalingen tussen bedrijven onderling, dan is er meer ruimte voor afspraken. Zo is het mogelijk om in de overeenkomst af te spreken dat de betalingstermijn langer is dan 30 dagen. Dit kan bijvoorbeeld het geval zijn bij grote bedragen of complexe projecten.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Afspraken onderling bedrijven: wat is de maximale betalingstermijn voor facturen<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n In Nederland is er een maximumtermijn afgesproken voor betalingstermijnen tussen bedrijven onderling. De maximale betalingstermijn is 60 dagen, tenzij er sprake is van een uitdrukkelijke overeenkomst tussen de partijen. In deze overeenkomst moet dan wel duidelijk worden gemaakt waarom een betalingstermijn van langer dan 60 dagen noodzakelijk is.<\/span><\/p>\n Voor grootbedrijven geldt een andere wettelijke betalingstermijn dan voor gewone bedrijven. Een grootbedrijf wordt gedefinieerd als een onderneming met meer dan 250 werknemers en\/of een jaaromzet van meer dan \u20ac50 miljoen. Voor deze bedrijven geldt een maximale betalingstermijn van 60 dagen, tenzij er sprake is van een uitdrukkelijke overeenkomst tussen de partijen.<\/span><\/p>\n Voor het MKB<\/a> en ZZP’ers<\/a> geldt dezelfde wettelijke betalingstermijn van 30 dagen als voor consumenten. Dit betekent dat bedrijven de factuur binnen 30 dagen na ontvangst moeten betalen, anders zijn ze wettelijke rente verschuldigd. Echter, het is voor deze groep ondernemers vaak lastiger om betalingstermijnen af te dwingen dan voor grote bedrijven. Daarom is er in 2018 de wet ‘betaaltermijnen grote bedrijven’ ingevoerd, waarmee de betalingstermijn van grote bedrijven aan MKB’ers en ZZP’ers beperkt werd tot 60 dagen.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”700px” custom_padding=”2px||4px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”\/nl\/nieuws\/” button_text=”Naar de nieuwspagina” module_class=”btn-back” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#001194″ button_bg_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0)” button_font=”||||on||||” button_icon=”#||divi||400″ button_icon_placement=”left” button_on_hover=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”off|hover” custom_padding__hover_enabled=”off|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||59px|false|false”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#000A54″ custom_padding=”||||true|false” global_module=”2087″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#ffffff” header_line_height=”2em” header_2_font=”|700|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#ffffff” header_2_font_size=”45px” header_2_line_height=”2em” header_3_font=”|700|||||||” header_3_text_align=”center” header_3_text_color=”#ffffff” header_3_font_size=”25px” header_font_tablet=”” header_font_phone=”” header_font_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_line_height_tablet=”1.8em” header_line_height_phone=”1.4em” header_line_height_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”32px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_font_tablet=”” header_3_font_phone=”” header_3_font_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_line_height_tablet=”” header_3_line_height_phone=”1.8em” header_3_line_height_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.factris.com\/nl\/geschiktheid\/” button_text=”Kijk of u in aanmerking komt” button_alignment=”center” module_class=”btn-tertiary-2″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#ffffff” button_bg_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0)” button_font=”||||on||||” button_icon=”$||divi||400″ button_icon_color=”#ffffff” button_on_hover=”off” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||true|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/onboarding.factris.com\/nl\/sign-up” button_text=”Meteen beginnen” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” button_icon=”$||divi||400″ button_icon_color=”#353540″ button_on_hover=”off” custom_margin=”||18px|||” custom_padding=”10px|40px|10px|28px|true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover_enabled=”on|hover” custom_padding__hover=”|50px|||true|false”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" De wettelijke betalingstermijn is een term die vaak wordt gebruikt bij het opstellen van facturen en betalingsafspraken tussen bedrijven en consumenten.

It refers to the period within which the payment must be made before statutory interest becomes due.

What is the legal payment term of an invoice?<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe Payment Terms Act 2017 sets the statutory payment term to 30 days in the UK. This implies that the invoice must be paid within 30 days from the receipt of the invoice, unless other arrangements have been agreed upon by the parties. In some cases, the payment term can also be reduced if there is <\/span>non-payment<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\n
Statutory payment term for consumers<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe same legal payment term of 30 days applies to consumers in the UK, unless otherwise agreed. This implies that businesses must pay the invoice within 30 days from receipt, or else they will owe statutory interest.<\/span>\n
Legal payment term for companies<\/strong><\/h2>\nFor companies, a legal payment term of 30 days applies in principle, unless otherwise agreed. However, there is more room for negotiations in payments between companies. For instance, it is possible to agree in the contract that the payment term is longer than 30 days. This may be the case for large amounts or complex projects.<\/span>\n
Agreements between companies: what is the maximum payment term for invoices<\/strong><\/h2>\nIn the UK, there is no set maximum payment term for payment agreements between companies. However, payment terms exceeding 60 days are generally considered unfair and can be challenged by the courts. Any agreement that stipulates a payment term beyond 60 days must justify why it is necessary.<\/span>\n
Statutory payment term for large companies<\/strong><\/h2>\nLarge companies in the UK, defined as those with more than 250 employees and\/or an annual turnover of over \u00a336 million, have a different legal payment term from ordinary companies. A maximum payment term of 60 days applies to these companies, unless there is an express agreement between the parties.<\/span>\n
What is the legal payment term for SME\/SMP?<\/strong><\/h2>\nFor small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the UK, the same legal payment term of 30 days applies as for consumers. This implies that businesses must pay the invoice within 30 days from receipt, or else they will owe statutory interest. However, it can be more challenging for SMEs to enforce payment terms when the <\/span>invoice has not been paid<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\n\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\"4.16\" _module_preset=\"default\" max_width=\"700px\" custom_padding=\"2px||4px|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_button button_url=\"\/en\/news\/\" button_text=\"Back to the news page\" module_class=\"btn-back\" _builder_version=\"4.18.0\" _module_preset=\"default\" custom_button=\"on\" button_text_color=\"#001194\" button_bg_color=\"rgba(0,0,0,0)\" button_font=\"||||on||||\" button_icon=\"#||divi||400\" button_icon_placement=\"left\" button_on_hover=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" button_text_color__hover_enabled=\"off|hover\" custom_padding__hover_enabled=\"off|desktop\" custom_padding__hover=\"|||59px|false|false\"][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\"1\" _builder_version=\"4.7.6\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_color=\"#000A54\" custom_padding=\"20vh||20vh||true|false\" global_module=\"2087\" saved_tabs=\"all\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_row _builder_version=\"4.18.0\" _module_preset=\"default\" custom_padding=\"0px||0px||true|false\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.18.0\" _module_preset=\"default\" header_font=\"|700|||||||\" header_text_color=\"#ffffff\" header_font_size=\"46px\" header_line_height=\"2em\" header_2_font=\"|700|||||||\" header_2_text_color=\"#ffffff\" header_2_font_size=\"46px\" header_2_line_height=\"2em\" header_3_font=\"|700|||||||\" header_3_text_align=\"center\" header_3_text_color=\"#ffffff\" header_3_font_size=\"25px\" header_font_tablet=\"\" header_font_phone=\"\" header_font_last_edited=\"on|desktop\" header_line_height_tablet=\"1.8em\" header_line_height_phone=\"1.4em\" header_line_height_last_edited=\"on|phone\" header_2_font_size_tablet=\"\" header_2_font_size_phone=\"32px\" header_2_font_size_last_edited=\"on|tablet\" header_3_font_tablet=\"\" header_3_font_phone=\"\" header_3_font_last_edited=\"on|phone\" header_3_line_height_tablet=\"\" header_3_line_height_phone=\"1.8em\" header_3_line_height_last_edited=\"on|phone\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]\n
