Article 55-7Demands to File Claims

第五十五条の七(債権の申出の催告等)

Within two months from the day on which a liquidator takes office, the liquidator must demand that creditors file their claims within a stated period of time, by giving public notice on at least three occasions. In such a case, the stated period of time may not be shorter than two months.

清算人は、その就職の日から二月以内に、少なくとも三回の公告をもつて、債権者に対し、一定の期間内にその債権の申出をすべき旨の催告をしなければならない。この場合において、その期間は、二月を下ることができない。

The public notice set forth in the preceding paragraph must be accompanied by a supplementary note stating that if a creditor does not file a claim within the stated period the creditor will be excluded from the liquidation; provided, however, that the liquidator may not exclude any known creditor.

前項の公告には、債権者がその期間内に申出をしないときは清算から除斥されるべき旨を付記しなければならない。ただし、清算人は、知れている債権者を除斥することができない。

A liquidator must separately make a demand to each known creditor to file their claims.

清算人は、知れている債権者には、各別にその申出の催告をしなければならない。

The public notice referred to in paragraph (1) is given by publication in the Official Gazette.

第一項の公告は、官報に掲載してする。
