Kansas Statute of Limitations on Debt Collection

Any type of debt has an end period to prevent a collection agency from being able to file a lawsuit outside of a time period that is called the statute of limitations. Before a consumer agrees to pay off their debt, they should check what the statute of limitations is for their state to ensure that the debt is still due and payable. In Kansas:

• Expressed or implied but not written contracts, obligations or liabilities: 3 years
• Written agreement, contract or promise: 5 years
