The information provided for in Articles 13 and 14 shall be provided in the official language or one of the official languages of the home Member State. For that purpose a form shall be used bearing, in all the official languages of the European Union, the heading ‘Invitation to lodge a claim. Time limits to be observed’ or, where the law of the home Member State provides for the submission of observations relating to claims, the heading ‘Invitation to submit observations relating to a claim. Time limits to be observed’.

Any creditor who has his domicile, normal place of residence or head office in a Member State other than the home Member State may lodge his claim or submit observations relating to his claim in the official language or one of the official languages of that other Member State. In that event, however, the lodgement of his claim or the submission of observations on his claim shall bear the heading ‘Lodgement of claim’ or ‘Submission of observations relating to claims’ in the official language or one of the official languages of the home Member State. In addition, he may be required to provide a translation into that language of the lodgement of claim or submission of observations relating to claims.
