distinction between 'Europe' and the 'World'. However, four variants ofpackage types have been defined in the System in order to deal withpossible future changes to the postal charge structure.

may differ by DM 0.01 from the charge determined from the total weightwhich is rounded less exactly.

recorded in the System.
