# Origin-Based Pricing

Some countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) have introduced origin-based pricing for voice services. This means
that the cost of a call to certain destinations depends on the country where the call originates. Typically, calls
originating from within the EEA are billed at a lower rate, while calls from non-EEA countries incur higher charges.

To comply with these regulatory changes and ensure accurate billing, DIDWW has implemented origin-based pricing for
affected destinations.

## How the Origin of a Call Affects Pricing

With origin-based pricing, the rate for a call to a specific destination depends on the origin of the call. This is
determined based on the caller ID information provided during the call setup.

Origin-based pricing is currently active for the following countries:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Austria | Greece | Norway |
| Belgium | Hungary | Poland |
| Bulgaria | Iceland | Portugal |
| Croatia | Ireland | Romania |
| Cyprus | Italy | Slovakia |
| Czech Republic | Latvia | Slovenia |
| Denmark | Liechtenstein | Spain |
| Estonia | Lithuania | Sweden |
| Finland | Luxembourg | United Kingdom |
| France | Malta |  |
| Germany | Netherlands |  |

Calls originating from within the [European Economic Area
(EEA)](https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Glossary:European_Economic_Area_(EEA)) are
billed at reduced rates when placed to the listed countries.

## How This Affects Your Call Rates

The **per-minute rate** is automatically calculated based on the **originating caller ID**. No manual configuration is
required.

DIDWW will continue to monitor regulatory developments and extend origin-based pricing to additional destinations if
needed. Pricing updates will be reflected in your account as they occur.
