Serving a foreign defendant differs significantly from domestic service, often taking from a few months to over a year, depending on the country and method used. The Hague Service Convention (HSC) mandates that signatory countries provide international service through their central authority, though alternative methods may be employed in non-signatory nations. U.S. courts, like in the Pedersen v. Dreams Come True Aviation case, understand these delays and may extend deadlines accordingly.
