Assets unlocked, exit still blocked
Sources stated that travel bans and vehicle seizures remain in place until the new procedures are finalized. Sources said the Enforcement General Administration attributed these procedures to the issuance of Decree-Law No. 59/2025, amending certain provisions of the Civil and Commercial Procedures Law.
Sources added the administration has started amending the computer system regarding the seizure of debtors' assets held by third parties to impose a seizure on the salaries of debtors (those subject to execution) at a rate ranging from 25 percent to 50 percent of the salary, as determined by law, based on the nature of the debt and the place of work of the debtor.
