## Monetary Claim Recovery Through the National Enforcement Bureau

In Georgia, the compulsory enforcement of enforceable decisions belongs by law to a single body: under Article 3 of the Law of Georgia on Enforcement Proceedings, compulsory enforcement is carried out by the National Enforcement Bureau — a public-law legal entity within the governance of the Ministry of Justice. The institution of private bailiffs no longer operates, and regardless of the amount of the claim, every monetary claim is processed under the Bureau's uniform procedure. This page describes the recovery of monetary claims through the Bureau system and the lawyer's role in that process.

For a creditor, this means that a sound enforcement strategy depends on knowing the Bureau's powers, the rules for opening proceedings, and the debtor's protective guarantees — errors such as submitting a defective writ of execution or requesting seizure of protected property delay the process for months.

### Who carries out the recovery of monetary claims?

Only the National Enforcement Bureau — under Article 3 of the law it is the exclusive organ of compulsory enforcement; the institution of private bailiffs no longer operates.

### On what basis are enforcement proceedings opened?

Under Article 25 — the creditor’s written application and the writ of execution; in specific cases a different basis applies (the minister’s act, a pledge or leasing certificate, an order).

### Can any property of the debtor be seized?

No — Article 45 protects essential items, four weeks’ food and fuel, limited livestock, farm inventory until the harvest, and targeted assistance; disputes are considered in court.

### What is the lawyer’s role in recovery?

The lawyer prepares the application, verifies the writ of execution, handles correspondence with the Bureau and protects the party’s interests in property-protection disputes.
