Projects with a determinable number of participants are billed according to per capita flat rates (officially standard unit costs). This is very simple: there is a fixed flat rate per day (known as a person-day) for each person taking part. This covers all costs. Individual expenses can no longer be billed.

The per diem differs according to the type of project. A distinction is made between three types:

1. Events: Cross-border get-togethers in all areas of social life such as sporting and cultural events, group exchanges as well as training and vacation camps, etc.
2. (Further) education: Cross-border meetings of people with an educational character, such as language modules to increase language skills or workshops, seminars and training courses on specific topics where knowledge is imparted, whether theoretical or practical. The aim is to increase the participants' competence in a specific subject area.
3. Specialist conferences: Cross-border meeting of experts from a specific specialist area who present their work and findings in papers and discuss them with each other. There is an exchange of information and experience in a specific specialist area.

The current flat rates for the three project types are as follows:

These rates are adjusted annually in February in line with inflation. The rate at the time of application always applies, not the rate at the time of implementation or settlement.

For projects that are already being implemented or invoiced, the previous rates of the per capita flat rates apply:

Small projects with a verifiable number of participants whose total costs amount to less than EUR 1,000 are not taken into account in the settlement.
Further details can be found in the implementation document in Annex No. 1 to the standard scales of unit costs.

Projects for which no specific number of participants can be determined are settled in the form of a so-called draft budget. A cost plan of the specific expenditure is submitted. This is used to calculate a cost rate based on a specific project result. If this result is achieved, the funds are paid out. Otherwise, the project sponsor receives nothing.

Encounter projects with an unverifiable number of participants may include the following events:

• Festivals and concerts,
• Markets and fairs,
• harvest festivals,
• public celebrations
• Cultural events,
• exhibitions,
• open days, etc.

Small projects with a NON-verifiable number of participants with a total cost of less than EUR 3 000 will not be taken into account in the settlement.
Further details can be found in the implementation document in Annex No. 2 to the Draft budget.

The project period begins at the earliest when the project application is registered with the fund administrator and usually lasts one year.

The project may begin as soon as the project has been registered. Registration takes place after a formal check and positive verification of technical eligibility. The first legal obligation to order equipment or use services or any other obligation that makes the project irreversible is deemed to be the start of the project. Any earlier start of the project means that the entire project is not eligible for funding!

Until the time of approval (conclusion of the grant agreement), applicants bear their costs at their own risk. There is no entitlement to funding.

The project must be approved by the Local Steering Committee.

Funding is approved through the conclusion of a grant agreement between the applicant and the relevant fund administrator. The grant agreement does not constitute an automatic entitlement to payment of the grant. To this end, the accounts must also be in order.
