With a direct debit in euro (SEPA), you give a creditor (e.g. your energy or gas supplier) permission to automatically deduct the amount of an invoice in euros from your account. That amount can always be different and is only collected after the invoice has been sent. You do not have to do anything if the amount of the recurring invoices is not always the same.

This is because the direct debit system covers the SEPA zone (Single European Payment Area). Click here to find the list of SEPA countries. So you can even pay invoices issued by non-Belgian creditors – such as your subscription to a German news website – automatically and easily.
