What is meant by Value Added Service (VAS) numbers?

Value Added Service (VAS) numbers are e.g. premium-rate numbers, freephone numbers or shared cost numbers you can call and/or text to receive access to services like gaming, matchmaking, content editing, information such as the weather forecast, doctors on call, etc.

How are your calls and SMS to VAS numbers charged in roaming?

When you travel outside Belgium (roaming) and you call or text to any VAS number (local, Belgian, EU or non-EU):

• your national tariff is not applicable
• the tariff advertised for local users is not applicable
• higher charges could apply, also for services advertised in the visited country as freephone numbers (these are only free for local users and not for roamers)

Are the VAS number ranges the same in the visited country as in Belgium?

No. The VAS number ranges vary from one country to another.

How can I know that I call or text a local VAS number in the visited country and that higher charges could apply?

In order to help you to know if higher charges could be applicable, select the country in the below list and the local VAS number ranges specific to the visited country will be displayed. If the list is empty, this means that no VAS numbers range is currently available in the visited country.
