Satisfying a Republic of Ireland judgment

Republic of Ireland judgments are shown as either satisfied or unsatisfied on the Register. Satisfied means you have paid in full, unsatisfied means you have not.

If you have fully paid the judgment more than a calendar month after the judgment date, in order to have a judgment marked as satisfied, you should provide proof of payment to the Four Courts in Dublin.  Once we are notified by the courts, the record will be updated as ‘satisfied’ on the Register where it will remain for the six-year period from the date of judgment.  Alternatively, the Register can be updated by sending us:

Step one

Written evidence from the claimant, or the claimant’s solicitor, confirming:

  • date of judgment
  • amount of judgment
  • date that the debt was repaid in full or confirming that the judgment went ahead in error
Step two

Forward the original documents to Registry Trust Limited, 153 – 157 Cleveland Street, London, W1T 6QW, with confirmation of your name and address at the time of the judgment.

Cancelling/setting aside a judgment

Judgments can only be removed from the Register if they are:

  • set aside by the court
  • paid prior to the court action
  • paid in full within one calendar month of the date of judgment

If the judgment was either entered in error or paid before the court action, an application should be made to the court to have the judgment set aside. Alternatively, the Register can be updated by sending us:

Step one

Written evidence from the claimant, or the claimant’s solicitor, confirming:

  • Name details on the judgment
  • date of judgment
  • amount of judgment
  • date that the debt was repaid in full or confirming that the judgment went ahead in error
Step two

Forward the original documents to Registry Trust Limited, 153 – 157 Cleveland Street, London, W1T 6QW, with confirmation of your name and address at the time of the judgment.

Once we receive the necessary information from the relevant court or the appropriate evidence the record will be removed from the Register.
