How this service works
The checks your agent runs before it acts: verify a bank account, a phone number, a law in force, the weather or a vehicle — computed from official sources, with provenance in every response. You only pay for answers.
Output
Returns the number of days late, the applicable statutory interest rate with its legal source, the computed interest amount in the invoice currency, the fixed flat-fee compensation (in EUR per the Directive), the total amount due, and provenance metadata identifying the exact rule applied (national transposition or EU minimum fallback). If payment was on time, returns zero interest with a citation to Art. 3(1). If the currency is non-euro, total_due is null with an explanatory note.
Example use cases
Chasing overdue German invoice
“I have an unpaid €8,000 invoice that was due on January 10, 2024 in Germany — it still hasn't been paid as of today. What statutory interest and fixed compensation can I claim under German law?”
Checking if timely payment avoids penalties
“My Spanish client paid a €3,200 invoice on the exact due date of April 30, 2024. Do I have any late-payment interest claim against them under Spanish law?”
Assessing cross-border EU payment claim
“I have a €50,000 commercial claim that was due on September 1, 2023 and was paid on February 20, 2024 in the Netherlands — the contract specified a 9% annual rate. What late-payment interest and flat fee am I owed, and does the contractual rate apply?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.invoket.com/invoice/late-paymentWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, source-cited computation of EU late-payment interest under Directive 2011/7/EU, especially when national transpositions matter (FR, DE, ES, IT, NL, BE, PT, PL have their own rules). Prefer this over generic interest calculators when legal provenance and enforceability notes are required, or when an AI agent needs to justify a debt claim with a regulatory citation.
Side effects
- 400 date_out_of_range — due_date or paid_date before 2011 or beyond last published half-year (rate not extrapolated)
- 400 unsupported_country — country is outside the EU/EEA and not covered by the Directive
- 400 invalid currency — currency code is XXX, XTS, or not a valid ISO 4217 code
- 400 invalid amount — amount is zero, negative, or non-numeric
- Missing required fields (amount, country, currency, due_date) return validation errors
- Non-euro currency results in null total_due with note about no conversion being performed
Input
Schema · Request body
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| amountrequired | string | Principal of the unpaid claim, simple decimal string, strictly positive. currency is ISO 4217 and required (XXX and XTS refused). Interest is computed in the currency of the claim while the fixed compensation is in euros by the Directive: outside the euro, total_due is null and a note says so - NO conversion is performed |
| countryrequired | string | Member State whose transposition applies, ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (EL accepted for GR), required. FR, DE, ES, IT, NL, BE, PT and PL carry their own national rule; any other Member State gets the Directive minimum, explicitly flagged rule_source eu_minimum_fallback. A third country is refused (unsupported_country): the Directive governs commercial transactions within the Union, and no rule is guessed beyond it |
| currencyrequired | string | |
| due_daterequired | string | Contractual due date. Alternatively supply invoice_date plus payment_terms_days; with neither, the national statutory default applies and the response says so. A term beyond the 60-day legal cap is NOT refused: it is computed as supplied, with a note recalling the cap may make it unenforceable. Dates must be real calendar dates, and a date outside the snapshot coverage (before 2011, or beyond the last published half-year) is a 400 date_out_of_range - the rate of an unopened half-year is never extrapolated |
| paid_daterequired | string | Date of payment or of the assessment, defaulting to today. Paying on time is a valid, paid answer: days_late 0, total_due 0, flat_fee.source not_due, with the rationale citing art. 3(1). An optional contractual_rate (annual, in points) applies ONLY if it exceeds the statutory rate, which stays a public-policy floor (art. 7); otherwise the statutory rate applies and a note says so |
