Short answer
The letter that must be sent before any other collection steps: all the information needed to assess the claim and a deadline of at least 10 days from sending.
Explanation
The requirement comes from section 10 of the Debt Collection Act. The letter must also warn that further costs may follow if the claim is not paid by the deadline. The deadline runs from the day the letter is sent. Only once it has passed may further collection steps be taken.
