I believe the majority of World War 1 reparations were intended to be settled by the Treaty of Versailles, which would require the losing powers to pay reparations and make up for civilian debt.

The Treaty of Versailles

Explanation:

The Treaty of Versailles was a peace treaty that was signed in the city of Versailles at the end of the First World War by more than fifty countries. This treaty officially ended with the state of war between the Germany of the Second Reich and the Allies of the first World War. It was signed on June 28, 1919 in the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles, exactly five years after the Sarajevo bombing in which Archduke Franz Ferdinand was killed, the direct cause of the First World War. Although the armistice was signed months before (November 11, 1918) to end hostilities on the battlefield, it took six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. The Treaty of Versailles came into force on January 10, 1920.
