In the title compound, C(6)H(14)N(+)·C(9)H(3)Cl(4)O(4) (-), the cyclo-hexane ring of the cation adopts a chair conformation. In the anion, the mean planes of the meth-oxy-carbonyl and carboxyl-ate groups form dihedral angles of 67.3 (3) and 55.7 (3)°, respectively, with the benzene ring. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the components into chains along [100].
