Ad­min­is­trat­ive pro­ced­ure

  1. Filling out the online application form
  2. Create an account in Mobility Online (only necessary for first mobility)
  3. Enter personal master data in Mobility Online (only necessary for first mobility)
  4. Enter further information for the Mobility Agreement in Mobility Online
  5. Print the Mobility Agreement and have it signed
  6. Upload Mobility Agreement

You will receive your grant agreement in triplicate. Please sign all copies and

  • return one copy to the International Office (see contact box).
  • enclose one copy with your business trip application (see below).
  • add one copy to your personal documents.

Please submit a business trip application through official channels in good time before travelling and enclose the Grant Agreement. Please inform the travel expenses office that you would like an advance payment of 70% of your grant by means of the application for an advance payment that you will receive.

Please have the guest institution complete, sign and stamp the Confirmation of Participation. The Confirmation serves as proof of the lessons you have given and the actual duration of your stay on site. The signature date must be the same date as the last day of your stay for teaching purposes. For example, if the teaching takes place from 1 April to 5 April, the date of the signature confirming the stay must be 5 April.

  1. Please submit your travel expense report to the travel expense centre and enclose the business trip approval as well as a copy of your confirmation of participation. As the amount of Erasmus+ funding is calculated on the basis of unit costs, a simplified travel expense report without receipts and vouchers is sufficient. Only the first two columns on page 2 of the travel expense report need to be filled in. (If the costs that exceed the Erasmus+ funding are paid for by another AO, the invoice must be completed in full. All receipts must then be attached and all columns of the document filled in. If in doubt, please ask the travel expenses centre for the exact data required.)
     
  2. Please upload a scan of the Confirmation of Participation in Mobility Online.
     
  3. At the end of your stay, you will receive an automatically generated e-mail with access to the EU Survey online survey. This is mandatory for Erasmus+ funding. Please complete it within 30 days and upload the generated PDF document to Mobility Online. In the case of a blended mobility, if the virtual part is after the physical part, you will only receive the invitation to the EU Survey after the end of the virtual phase.
     
  4. Would you like to report on your stay in more detail and share your experiences with colleagues? Then we would be delighted to receive a (voluntary) report, which we will publish on the Experience Reports website.
