What are the differences between provision for bad debts and provision for doubtful debts?

Provision for doubtful debt means which a business or individual is unlikely to be able to collect.

And a bad debt provision is a reserve against the future recognition of certain accounts receivable as being uncollectable.

Thanks for invitation 

The provision for bad debts is  a provision made for specific bad debts. While the provision for doubtful debts is a contra debtors account and it shows the estimated total of future bad debts.
