Many organisations and businesses in Israel use the Harsha Le’chiyuv (הרשאה לחיוב) process to collect their payments. The automations allow for smooth and efficient payments without the need for reminders or chasing.
What is Harsha Le’chiyuv?
The Harsha lechiyuv, is the Israeli equivalent of a direct debit or auto-pay. It’s where the payee provides authorisation to a business or organisation to withdraw payments directly from their bank account.
So, if for example, you authorise a Harsha lechiyuv for the tax authority, they will be able to withdraw payments from your bank account automatically. This saves you the time of manually processing a bank transfer each month. And you also don’t need to worry about forgetting to make payments on time.
