Subject: Update of the interest rates for late payments - 2nd semester 2026

Dear Members of the Late Payment Expert Group,

My name is Florent Guérin and, since 1 March, I have taken over from 
Antonella Correra in DG GROW’s Unit A2 in the late payment team.

As you know, it is now time to update the statutory late payment interest 
rates applicable for the second semester of 2026 (1.7.2026 - 31.12.2026)

Please find attached the provisional table, which has been pre-filled 
(highlighted in yellow) with the rates applicable during the previous 
semester.

I would be grateful if you could send me any updates to the applicable rates 
by 17 July 2026.  If we do not receive any changes by that date, we will 
assume that the rates applicable in the first semester of 2026 remain 
applicable also for the second semester of 2026.

Finally, if there have been any changes within your teams, I would 
appreciate it if you could let me know so that we can keep our distribution 
list up to date. The current list is based on the information received up to 
January 2026.

Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Best regards,

Florent
