Process
Service Network is one of a few firms that specializes in
international service of process and offers competitive rates on foreign
services. Here is a summary of the
methods available for service outside the United States and a specific proposal
for the requested nation. Our job is to cut through the bureaucracy and red tape to get the service completed with as little delay as possible. Since we have been in business for 28 years, we have developed close working relationships with key individuals in most countries throughout the world. The founder and President of Process Service Network was a Political Science major in college with a focus on international relations and is actively involved in a worldwide organization through which he has developed business and personal relationships in over 80 nations worldwide. FORMAL SERVICE: FIJI is a former
territory of Great Britain, recently becoming independent.
FIJI is a signer of the Hague Service Convention. Service may be made by
formal service through the Central Authority which itself arranges for service
by methods prescribed in that country. Documents
to be served in accordance with this method must be translated
into the official language of the country where the documents will be served.
The time frame can range from 3 to 5 months. THIS
IS THE RECOMMENDED METHOD FOR SERVICE IN FIJI IF ATTACHMENT OF ASSETS IS
ANTICIPATED. Advantage:
Enforcement of judgment and cost. INFORMAL SERVICE:
Private process servers may serve documents in most countries, whether a
signer of The Hague Service Convention, or not.
Service is normally handled in a manner similar to methods used in North
America, although completion of the service usually takes longer. Customs and
traditions in other countries tend to lead to a slower pace and less rigid work
habits, particularly in Pacific Island countries.
Service sometimes may take several months but informal service is
generally much faster than the formal method.
Many process servers who we employ are off-duty police officers or other
government officials who are able to, in certain cases, exercise their official
capacity to complete the service. Since we pay the process server a bonus (at
our own expense) for prompt service, the normal delays are usually reduced.
Estimated time: 1-2 months. Advantage:
Time. Disadvantage:
Judgment may not be enforceable in the country where assets are located;
cost TRANSLATIONS:
Not required since English is the official language. COSTS: Service of process: Formal= $ 485.00 Informal = $ 875.00
