Roaming is when you use mobile phone services (calls, text messages and mobile internet) while travelling abroad: you call (or send an SMS or MMS) to a fixed or mobile number in the country where you are. Roaming should not be confused with international calls (calls made and SMS messages sent from Belgium to a foreign number) because, in the case of intra-EU calls, the tariffs may be higher than those for roaming within the EU.

We talk about international communications when you call (with your fixed or mobile telephone) or send an SMS message from Belgium, to a foreign destination. Beware! Do not confuse international communications with roaming, i.e. the use of your Belgian subscription/prepaid card when travelling abroad. This distinction is important because national tariffs are applicable to roaming in the EU (and Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein). This is not the case for international communications to EU Member States (and Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) the price of which is capped but higher than national tariffs.

In addition to those regarding radiocommunications, the use of drones is subject to other rules.
