3. A payment service provider shall provide a separate fee information document in respect of each of the payment accounts it offers to consumers.

4. Notwithstanding the provision of a payment account with basic features referred to in Chapter IV of Directive 2014/92/EU, where a payment service provider offers only one payment account to consumers that can be combined with different packages of services referred to in Article 4(3) of Directive 2014/92/EU, the payment service provider may produce more than one fee information document in respect of that account, provided that each fee information document contains at least one package.
