Further training and education (STT)

The accommodation costs, including accommodation allowance, depend on the number of days spent at the receiving institution plus, if necessary, an additional day for arrival and departure. The unit cost per day depends on the destination country and the length of stay; from the 15th day onwards the rate is reduced.

Country groups according to funding rates in project 18/20:

• Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Norway, Sweden, United Kingdom: €180 (or €126 from the 15th day onwards)

• Belgium, Germany, France, Greece, Italy, Malta, Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, Spain, Cyprus: €160 (or €112 from the 15th day onwards)

• Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Croatia, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia (FYROM), Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey: €140 (or €98 from the 15th day onwards)

The travel expenses are calculated based on distance as the crow flies determined with the European Commission Distance Calculator and are reimbursed as follows:

     10 – 99 km:                    €20                                           
   100 – 499 km:                €180
   500 – 1,999 km:              €275
2,000 – 2,999 km:            €360
3,000 – 3,999 km:            €530
4,000 – 7,999 km:            €820
8,000 km and more:     €1,500

The total amount is calculated from the travel costs plus the unit costs multiplied by the number of days spent abroad. Ideally, the money is paid in advance and only confirmed with the business travel statement.

Please remember to settle your business trip within 45 days of your return from abroad; otherwise your entitlement to funding will lapse.
