The costs

The costs resulting from the control are borne by the project partners and can be reported as eligible costs in compliance with the relevant EU regulations and programme rules. These costs should therefore be planned in the project budget.

The control costs will be charged at the rate of 2.5 % of the controlled amount. The invoices will be sent 2 months after each certification request via e-mail.

On-the-spot checks

At least one on-the-spot check will be carried out for partners reporting equipment and/or infrastructure & works costs related to a pilot action during the lifetime of their project.

The costs

The control costs must be borne by the project partner, and can be reported as eligible costs within the project under budget line "External expertise and service costs". These costs should therefore be planned in the project budget.

On-the-spot checks

The type of control to be performed may vary(full or extended control, on the spot control, only sampling...), potentially even within one and the same project for one and the same beneficiary based on controllers’ professional judgement.

For more information, Flemish partners are invited to contact their approbation body.
