Information on Erasmus+ can be found on the European Commission's websites and in the National Agency Guide (German).
Under the umbrella of the EU education program Erasmus+, the following mobility measures are funded in the program countries:
Each higher education institution participating in the Erasmus+ program must have a valid Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE). The ECHE is awarded by the European Commission. It proves that a higher education institution meets all the requirements for successful participation in the Erasmus+ program.

The financial support for ERASMUS+ student stays is based on the different costs of living in the target countries (‘programme countries’).
From project year 2024, the following minimum amounts will apply throughout Europe in the respective country groups:
Student mobility for studies and internships abroad
| Country group | Destination country | Funding amount for students per month |
Country group 1
| Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden Partner countries from regions 13 (Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Vatican City State) and 14 (Faroe Islands, Switzerland, United Kingdom) | EUR 600 |
Country group 2 | Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Malta, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Czech Republic, Cyprus | EUR 540
|
Country group 3 | Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Lithuania, North Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Turkey
| EUR 540 |
| Non-associated partner countries from regions 1-12 (2024) / 1-3 and 5-12 (2025) | EUR 700 |
Top-up amounts (top-ups)
| for internships: | EUR 150 / month |
| for participants with fewer opportunities: | EUR 250 / month |
All figures subject to change and according to the allocation of funds by the European Commission.
More detailed information on top-ups, support for participants with fewer opportunities and funding for additional travel days can be found in the declaration of honour (german) or top-ups.
Note:
There is no legal entitlement to a subsidy or to a certain amount of funding.
Zero grant funding
Students will be awarded the mobility grant for a shorter period of time, unless sufficient financial resources are available.
The remaining stay is recorded as a so-called zero-grant period. A mobility can also be carried out as a complete Zero Grant period, i.e. students benefit from the advantages of the Erasmus programme, but do not receive any financial support from the programme.
Note on funding for ERASMUS+ internships from project year 2024: Only physical periods are funded and only a maximum of 6 months (180 days) per mobility. The period exceeding this will be calculated as a zero grant. The additional top-ups are also only paid out for 6 months.
The financial support for ERASMUS+ mobilities for teaching purposes or for further education and training is based on the different costs of living in the target countries (‘programme countries’). Standardised daily rates apply for funding from German universities.
From project year 2024, the following fixed daily rates apply for Germany for the country groups listed below up to the 14th day of the stay; from the 15th to the 60th day of the stay, the funding amounts to 70% of the daily rates mentioned.
From the 2024 project year, the following minimum amounts will apply throughout Europe in the three respective country groups:
Staff mobility for teaching and learning purposes as well as further education and training (unit costs for days of stay)
| Destination country | Funding amount (cost per unit) up to the 14th day of the activity | Funding amount (cost per unit) from the 15th to the 60th day of the activity |
Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Finland, France, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Austria, Sweden Partner countries from regions 13 (Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Vatican City State) and 14 (Faroe Islands, Switzerland, United Kingdom) | 180 EUR | 126 EUR |
| Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Malta, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Czech Republic, Cyprus | 160 EUR | 112 EUR |
| Bulgaria, Croatia, Lithuania, North Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Turkey, Hungary | 140 EUR | 98 EUR |
| Non-associated partner countries from regions 1-12 (2024) / 1-3 and 5-12 (2025) | 190 EUR | 133 EUR |
