The Invoice Acknowledgement Letter is a critical business document used when a party needs to formally confirm receipt and acceptance of invoices and acknowledge the associated debt. This document, governed by Irish law, serves multiple purposes: it restarts the limitation period for debt collection under the Statute of Limitations Act 1957, provides clear evidence of the debt, and helps maintain accurate financial records. The letter typically includes specific details about the invoices being acknowledged, confirmation of amounts owed, and agreed payment terms. It's particularly important in situations where there might be payment delays, when establishing clear payment schedules, or when documenting complex commercial relationships. The document must comply with Irish commercial law requirements and may have implications for VAT purposes under the Value Added Tax Consolidation Act 2010.
