This specification provides the definition of the Direct debit message (DIRDEB) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport.
Prior to the Direct Debit procedure, some agreement(s) would usually have been concluded :
A Direct Debit is sent by the Creditor to the Creditor's Bank instructing it to claim specified amount(s) from the Debtor(s) and to credit the amount(s) to an account specified in the message, which the Creditor's Bank services for the Creditor in settlement of the referenced transaction(s).
Throughout this document the term 'Creditor' refers to either a Beneficiary or a Payee, likewise the term 'Debtor' refers to either an Ordering Customer or a Payor.
The term 'Bank' may be interpreted as any financial institution.
The term 'pre-authorization' refers to an agreement between a Creditor and a Debtor for
The agreement can also be made between the debtor and his bank, independently of the amount of the DIRDEB.
The Direct debit message may be used for both national and international applications. It is based on universal practice related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not dependent on the type of business or industry.
This message type may be applied, for both national and international settlements, but it is based on the national existing rules of the debit side.
The cancellation of a message can only be effected by the originator of the message. The kind of cancellation is dependent upon the process of the message or a transaction of it.
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 1.
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 2.
