Erasmus+grant for staff exchange

The grant consists of two parts, a travel grant and a subsistence grant. The travel grant is stipulated on how far you are going to travel. The subsistence grant is stipulated on where you are going. 

Please note that the subsistence grant is based on the duration of your stay abroad, and includes the days you are travelling. 

The grant does not necessarily cover the true costs. Therefore, you must clarify any additional expenses and who will cover these with your Head of Section. The rates are the same for both the teaching grant and the training grant. 

 The travel rates are calculated based on the distance you travel:

• 0 - 99 km: € 20

• 00-499 km: € 180

• 500-1999 km: € 275

• 2000-2999 km: € 360

• 3000-3999 km: € 530

• 4000-7999 km:  € 820

• 8000 km or more: € 1500

You calculate travel distance by using the European Commission’s Distance Calculator (europa.eu).

When you are typing the name of the place, several suggestions appear in a drop-down menu. Please note that you must select from the menu, or the calculator will not work!
