(e.g. to extend the capacity of the computer centre in Amsterdam).
International bank transfers
- From EU countries
- According current legislation, an international bank transfer within the EU may cost no more than the usual fee for a domestic transfer. In many cases those costs will be zero. You will need an IBAN number and possibly a BIC code for such international transfer (see above).
- From other countries
- Bank transfers to any of above accounts will definitely incur extra bank transfer costs. Alternatives (which also may imply additional charges) can be found here.
