Charges valid as at September 202 Charges valid as at September 202 Our charges are expressed in euros. Where payable, V.A.T. is specifically indicated. V.A.T. is calculated at the current rate (at present 2%) on total commissions and costs, unless ancillary to a credit operation, in which case no V.A.T. will be payable. Forward exchange operations are not liable to V.A.T.. International payments Definitions A European direct debit (SEPA) is an agreement between two parties (= a direct debit mandate) which allows the beneficiary of the claim (= creditor) to initiate the debit of the payer s account (= debtor). The execution of this type of payment meets the following characteristics: - The creditor s account and the debtor s account are in one of the countries defined in European transfers (SEPA). - The transfer amount must be denominated in euros. - The direct debit instruction must meet the STP criteria, namely it must indicate the IBAN and the BIC of the debtor s bank. A European transfer (SEPA) is a payment with the following characteristics: - Payment where both the principal s account and that of the beneficiary are in one of the 27 EU Member States (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungry, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom) or in Norway, Iceland, Switzerland or Liechtenstein. - The transfer amount must be denominated in euros. Other payments are called international payments. Payment execution deadlines: ING requires time to process payments and transmit payment instructions; ING transmits payments to clearing houses (e.g. EBA) or to our correspondent banks. Correspondent banks are banks abroad with which ING works to execute payments. Such foreign banks ensure that payments arrive at the beneficiary s bank via local clearing houses. The total time this requires is called the payment execution deadline. ING can only guarantee up to the clearing house or correspondent bank. The execution deadline depends on various parameters: the execution option chosen, the currency of the transaction, a possible currency conversion and the country of destination. Execution options for outgoing European and international payments: Standard payments: A payment without special conditions, possible for all available currencies where: - in the case of international payments the funds arrive at the correspond bank within 2 to 3 days. - in the case of European payments the funds arrive at the beneficiary s bank within 24 hours. Urgent payments: Accelerated execution of the payment, possible for all available currencies where: - in the case of international payments the funds arrive at the correspond bank within to 2 days. - in the case of European payments the funds arrive at the beneficiary s bank the same day. Same-Day Payments: A Same-Day payment is possible for all available currencies. The payment will be presented to the correspondent bank with the first possible value date. ING will apply a compensated value date, i.e. the debit value date will correspond to the date on which the correspondent bank is credited. Prio Payment: High priority payment. Such payments are only possible for payments in euros without currency conversion, with a compensated credit and debit value date. Furthermore, in the case of international payments, the funds are credited within the hour to the correspondent bank. Vale date: The value date is the date on which an amount withdrawn ceases to yield interest or that on which an amount deposited starts to yield interest. International Bank Account Number (IBAN): International standard for bank account numbers to be used for European credit transfers and, where appropriate, international payments. An IBAN consists of a maximum of 34 alphanumerical characters and a set length per country. It includes a country code (2 letters), a check digit (2 digits) and a domestic account number (completed for some countries). Bank Identifier Code (BIC): international code, also known as SWIFT address, which allows a unique identification of each bank. It includes 8 or alphanumerical characters and consists of a bank code (4 characters), a country code (2 letters), a place code (2 characters), and can be completed, for some banks, by a branch code (3 characters). Straight Through Processing (STP) : - In the case of European credit transfers: payment which indicates the correct account numbers (IBAN) of the payer and the payee, the BIC (Swift address) of the payee s bank. - In the case of international payments: payment which indicates the correct account numbers (IBAN, BBAN or other) of the payer and the payee, the BIC (Swift address) of the payee s bank, and the full name and address of the payee. 2 3
Charges valid as at September 202 Charges valid as at September 202 Cost instruction - BEN/SHA/OUR The payer can indicate how the costs are distributed. There are three options: - Shared Costs (SHA ): the payer pays the costs charged by his/her bank; the costs charged by the payee s bank are borne by the payee. - Our Costs (OUR borne by the payer): the payer pays the costs charged by his/her bank and the costs charged by the payee s bank. - Beneficiary Costs (BEN costs borne by the payee): the payer does not pay any costs. Both the costs charged by the payer s bank and the costs of the payee s bank are borne by the payee. In the case of European transfers and outbound international payments in a currency of the EEA and in the EEA, only SHA is accepted. If another instruction is given, it will automatically be changed to SHA. In the case of any other international payment, SHA, BEN or OUR can be chosen. What will you be charged for an outbound international payment? - With a SHA instruction: ING s payment commission (see point.) - With an OUR instruction: ING s payment commission + OUR costs (see points. and 3) - With a BEN instruction: no charges for the customer. ING automatically deducts the commission from the amount transferred. What will you be charged for an incoming international payment? - With a SHA instruction: ING s payment commission (see point.) - With an OUR instruction: no charges for ING customers (payees) - With a BEN instruction: ING s payment commission + the correspondent banks charges. Full amount principle: the full amount must be transferred to the payee s account. Any charges possibly applicable are debited by the bank separately. This principle applies to European credit transfers. The European Economic Area (EEA) includes the 27 Member States of the European Union as well as Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein..
