Insolvency Service Proof of Debt Form for Company Liquidation (Form 77)

Submission of Proof of Debt (Form 77) is one of the eServices under IPTO's Insolvency eServices. It allows Claimants to submit the Proof of Debt electronically. The first 4 pages constitute the Proof of Debt details and the remaining pages are for checking and confirmation purposes.
A filing fee is payable for each Proof of Debt submitted.

Important:
Please be informed that IPTO will only process the Proofs of Debt which the Payment Transaction is successful i.e. payment amount is received by IPTO.

Receiving a successful Transaction Completion would generally indicate a Successful Payment Transaction for payment made using Cash Card/Direct Debit, since the payment amount is immediately deducted from your Cash Card/Direct Debit Account. However, for payment made using Credit Card/Flexipay, as the payment transactions need to be cleared by the Bank, receiving a successful Transaction Completion may not necessarily mean that the payment amount would be received by IPTO. In the event that IPTO does not receive the payment amount, IPTO would inform you of the unsuccessful payment.

If you are new to IPTO eServices, you may wish to go through General Information first.
If you have problems accessing IPTO eServices, please refer to the Technical Guide and FAQs.
For a Step-by-Step Guide to make payment transactions, please check our ePayment Guide.
