PAYMENT

EU home instituition
If you are a guest from an EU university or institution, you will receive a transfer of 70% of the subsidy amount to your bank account after you have sent us the Grant Agreement by email. Once you have completed the EU Survey (see "AFTER YOUR STAY"), we can transfer the remaining 30% of the grant.
non-EU home institution
If you are a guest from a non-European university or institution, you will receive a cash payment of the total subsidy amount in the first few days after your arrival in Weimar. We will coordinate the exact procedure with you individually.

AFTER YOUR STAY

EU survey
The EU Commission will send you an email (from EU-CORPORATE-NOTIFICATION-SYSTEM@ec.europa.eu) requesting you to complete a short online report (multiple choice).
Experience report
At the end of your stay, we will ask you to fill out an experience report. To do this, please log back into the portal and select the appropriate form.

Amount of financial support

To be eligible for the Erasmus+ programme, the stay in Weimar must last at least 2 days (EU home institution) or at least 5 days (non-EU home institution). Travel days do not count as residence days. The subsidy is divided into

a flat-rate per diem residence allowance of 160 EUR per day
(usually no allowance is paid for Saturdays and Sundays)
and
a one-time flat-rate travel allowance, which is based on the distance between Weimar and your home institution.

Additional funding can be provided through sustainable travel (applicable primarily within Europe).

Sustainable travel or "Green travel" means travel that uses low-emission means of transport such as bus, train or bicycle for the majority of the journey (at least 50% in total).

Ship, plane, car/e-car or motorbike do not count as a sustainable means of transport. Even if CO2 emissions are compensated, planes are not considered sustainable means of transport.

Applicable primarily within Europe:
If longer time is needed for the trip due to the use of sustainable means of transport, funding can be granted for up to 4 additional days - as long as this was stated and justified accordingly when applying for funding.

Travel support

Travel costs are subsidised on a flat-rate basis throughout Europe based on the straight-line distance between the point of departure and destination. The distance is determined by a European Commission instrument (distance calculator).

Straight-line distance	Standard travel	Green travel
0 to 99 kilometres	28 EUR	-
100 to 499 kilometres	211 EUR	285 EUR
500 to 1.999 kilometres	309 EUR	417 EUR
2.000 to 2.999 kilometres	395 EUR	535 EUR
3.000 to 3.999 kilometres	580 EUR	785 EUR
