Proof of Debt

A Proof of Debt is a document or set of documents that establishes the existence, ownership, and amount of an outstanding debt owed by a debtor to a creditor or debt collector. The proof typically includes the original contract or agreement that created the debt, such as a credit card application, loan document, or service contract, as well as any subsequent statements, invoices, or receipts that show the charges, payments, and balances on the account. The proof may also include any written communication between the parties, such as demand letters, dispute letters, or settlement offers, as well as any court judgments or legal documents related to the debt. The purpose of a Proof of Debt is to provide evidence of the debt’s validity and enforceability, and to support the creditor or collector’s claim for payment. The proof may be requested by the debtor, a court, or a regulatory agency, and may be used in legal proceedings or disputes. The proof should be accurate, complete, and reliable, and should be maintained and provided in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
