1.Every payment must indicate in the reference field the invoice number, with the exception of payments due under Article 10.
Payments due under Article 10 shall indicate in the reference field the identity of the appellant(s) and, if available, the number of the decision that is being appealed.
2.If the purpose of the payment cannot be established, the Agency shall set a deadline by which the payer must notify it in writing of the purpose of the payment. If the Agency does not receive a notification of the purpose of the payment before expiry of that deadline, the payment shall be considered invalid and the amount concerned shall be refunded to the payer.
1.The date on which the full amount of the payment is deposited in a bank account held by the Agency shall be considered to be the date on which the payment has been made.
2.The payment shall be considered to have been made in time where sufficient documentary evidence is produced to show that the payer ordered the transfer to the bank account indicated on the invoice before expiry of the relevant deadline.
A confirmation of the transfer order issued by a financial institution shall be regarded as sufficient evidence.

1.A deadline for payment shall be considered to have been observed only if the full amount of the fee or charge has been paid in due time.
