GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Arabic translation:مدفوعة القيمة

English to Arabic translations [Non-PRO]
Agriculture / Pesticide control
English term or phrase: reverse charges
The following phrase appears in a product label:

"contact (800) xxx-xxxx (within the USA) or (xxx) xxx-xxxx (outside the USA, reverse charges)"

I would like to see if there is a better or more concise translation for "reverse charges" than the one we are currently using on these sheets. I will not bias the answers by mentioning the current translation.

Thanks.

neutral  Ahmed Ismail: I agree on the first part, but the collect\reverse charges call is a telephone call that the receiving party is asked to pay for.
