Council Regulation 4/2009 of 18 December 2008 relating to maintenance obligations aims at ensuring the effective and swift recovery of maintenance.
The Regulation provides for nine standard forms which should facilitate the communication between Central Authorities and make possible to submit applications electronically.
The Regulation applies between all Member States of the European Union.
Denmark confirmed its intention to implement the content of the Regulation, to the extent that the Regulation amends Regulation (EC) N° 44/2001, by means of a declaration based on a parallel agreement concluded with the European Community.
Denmark is not bound by the 2007 Hague Protocol.
Submission of forms to competent authority
Completed forms should be sent to the relevant competent authority in a manner required by the authority. More information on the contact details for competent authorities, relevant national legislature etc. can be found in the European Judicial Atlas section. This page includes a search tool to find the competent authorities to which to send completed forms.
Nine standard forms
Aside from the nine standard forms an additional, non-compulsory standard form on the statement of maintenance arrears was developed by the European Judicial Network in civil and commercial matters. The aim of this additional form is to facilitate the practical implementation of the Maintenance Regulation, and the effective exercise of citizens’ rights throughout the EU.
The European Judicial Network in civil and commercial matters has also developed a Guidance on the use of the Annexes under the Maintenance Regulation that is available in 23 language.

Mill-1 ta’ Jannar 2021, ir-Renju Unit ma għadux Stat Membru tal-UE. Madankollu, fil-qasam tal-ġustizzja ċivili, il-proċeduri u l-proċeduri mibdija fi tmiem il-perjodu ta’ tranżizzjoni se jkomplu skont il-liġi tal-UE. Sa tmiem l-2024, ir-Renju Unit jista’ jkompli jintgħażel fil-formoli (dinamiċi) online għall-iskop ta’ dawk il-proċedimenti u proċeduri. Eċċezzjoni għal din ir-regola huma l-formoli tad-dokumenti Pubbliċi, li fi fihom ir-Renju Unit m’għandux jintgħażel.
