In case of an overpayment the customer has the option to use the overpayment to pay for future applications.

If the customer wants a refund of the overpayment, then the customer must prepare the application on the refund of the overpayment in Latvian language or in foreign language with a legally valid translation into Latvian and submit it to the FVS.

Please note if the application on the refund of the overpayment is submitted by an authorized representative of a legal entity, a power of attorney must be attached to the application (including the representation in state institutions) in Latvian language or in foreign language with a legally valid translation into Latvian.

To the application on the refund of the overpayment must be added a document by which it can be unequivocally concluded that the person giving the application or the power of attorney (company representative) has the right to represent the company (an official confirmation/certificate from the Register of Enterprises of your country, claiming that the signer is the person who has the rights to act on behalf of the company).

The customer can use his own forms for the power of attorney and the application on the refund of the overpayment (with an a legally valid translation into Latvian) or use sample prepared by the FVS in Latvian language with a direct English translation.
