Order imposing the bailiff's enforcement fee
This is a separate charge on top of the debt, imposed because the demand was not met inside the period for voluntary compliance. It is challenged on its own, and there are ten days to do it.
How serious: enforcement closeAlso called: исполнительский сбор, постановление о взыскании сбора, сбор 12 процентов
Article 112 of Federal Law 229-FZ imposes the enforcement fee on a debtor who did not comply within the period for voluntary compliance. It is not interest and not part of the debt but a charge in its own right.
Since 9 January 2026 it is twelve percent of the sum to be recovered, and not less than 2,000 ₽ from an individual or sole trader and 20,000 ₽ from an organisation. It was seven percent before; the rates were raised by Federal Law No. 563-FZ of 29 December 2025.
Article 112 leaves two routes and both lead to a court: release from the fee where performance was impossible through force majeure, and reduction of its amount. The bailiff decides neither.
Who sends it
The bailiff at the FSSP district office running the enforcement proceedings.
The heading 'Постановление о взыскании исполнительского сбора', the enforcement case number in the form № …-ИП, a citation of article 112 of Federal Law 229-FZ, the amount of the fee with its calculation from the debt, and a statement that it is recovered on top of the principal. It arrives via Госуслуги or by registered post, and the case is visible in the public register at fssp.gov.ru.
The deadline
десять дней на жалобу — со дня вынесения постановления либо со дня, когда о нём стало известно
Ten days. Article 122 of Federal Law 229-FZ counts them from the day the order was made — or, for someone not notified of the time and place of the action, from the day they learned or should have learned of it.
If you do nothing
The fee is recovered alongside the principal: it enters the enforcement proceedings and is taken from accounts and income. Release from the fee and reduction of its amount are matters article 112 puts before a court — doing nothing leads to neither.
Compute your date
The rule above is what the law sets. Put in the dates on your own letter and it becomes a date.
How it escalates
- 01The fee is enforced alongside the debt — debits from accounts, deductions from income, seizure of property.
- 02Since 9 January 2026 the fee is twelve percent, and not less than 2,000 ₽ from an individual or sole trader and 20,000 ₽ from an organisation.
- 03The ten-day window for a complaint closes, and it reopens only on the terms of article 122.
- 04Paying the principal after the fee was imposed does not cancel the fee — it remains a separate claim.
How to respond
Below is the procedure: where the complaint goes, what it must contain, and by when. Whether the charge is right on the merits is a question for a lawyer.

- In person at the district office counter, against a receipt stamp.
- ГАС «Правосудие» for the court route.
What to attach
- A copy of the order being challenged.

What makes it count
The ten days run from the day the order was made, or for someone not notified, from the day they learned of it. A complaint to the superior official is filed through the bailiff whose order is challenged; release from the fee and reduction of its amount go to a court.
Common questions
What is the fee calculated on?
On the sum to be recovered or the value of the property to be recovered — twelve percent since 9 January 2026, and not less than 2,000 ₽ from an individual or sole trader and 20,000 ₽ from an organisation (article 112).
I paid the debt as soon as I found out. Is the fee still due?
The fee is imposed for not complying within the period for voluntary compliance. Paying afterwards closes the debt but not the fee: it stays a separate claim, and removing it goes through a court under article 112.
Where does the complaint go?
To the superior official, but filed through the bailiff whose order is challenged. Or to a court, within the same ten days. Release from the fee and reduction of its amount are for a court only.
Ten days from when?
From the day the order was made. If you were not notified of the time and place of the action, article 122 counts from the day you learned or should have learned of it.
