  • The creditor may apply to the court for the commencement of the procedure if the total debt claimed exceeds (fifty thousand) Saudi Riyals.
  • The total debt shall not exceed (2 million) Saudi Riyals.
  • There is no chance for the debtor to resume his/her business activities and generate better returns.
  • The proceeds expected from selling the assets shall cover the procedure's expenses.
