Temporary adaptation of EYE programme rules
Following the developments in the Covid-19 outbreak, the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programme has temporarily adapted its rules. Remote exchanges are possible and allowed for a period of 1 to 3 months. Entrepreneurs participating in the remote exchange are NOT eligible to receive a financial allowance. If, after 3 months, the NE can travel, the physical exchange can take place for maximum 6 months and the NE is entitled to receiving a financial allowance. The duration of the match (remote + physical) must be achieved within a period of 12 consecutive months. These exceptional rules will apply until the 31st of December 2024 (please note that this end-date is indicative and could be further extended). If you need more information, please consult your Intermediary Organization.
Travel rules
The Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programme does not define any new travel restrictions in addition to those that already exist at national level. Participants need to follow national advice and consult the website of their respective national ministries (Ministry of Health and/or Ministry of Foreign Affairs, etc.) for up-to-date travel restriction. In addition, participants need to make sure they have a valid medical insurance, whatever their destination, in accordance to the programme rules.
