    Wanneer een juridisch geschil wordt voorgelegd aan de rechter, zijn er griffierechten verschuldigd. Griffierecht is de vergoeding die door de gerechtelijke instantie wordt geheven voor het in behandeling nemen van de zaak. De hoogte van deze kosten hangt bijvoorbeeld af van de aard van de zaak, het inkomen van een rechtszoekende, en of een natuurlijk persoon of rechtspersoon procedeert. Onder omstandigheden kan een (rechts)persoon in aanmerking komen voor het verlaagd griffierecht voor onvermogenden.
