It is not uncommon to collect debt when one party, the creditor is in one country, the debtor in another and the collection company in yet another. This has happened recently with the creditor in India, the debtor in Dubai and our UK office dealing with the collection. In another case, we have a Chinese company chasing a debt here in the UK with the directors based in Monaco. Yet the collection is handled from the UK.
These collections can carry a multitude of problems, as the laws often prevent actions that can be instigated in one country but not others. It all comes down to knowing who you are dealing with. When we take on a client we will always run credit checks on the debtors they are bringing to us and forward those reports on to our client. The motto here is very simply know your client
