Financial Support - How does it work?

Reimbursement on receipts

External participants can receive a reimbursement of up to 80€/day on receipt, given that the required minimum stay of 10 days is fulfilled. Participants with residency in the Munich area or Garching are deemed local and are therefore not eligible for financial support.

Please note that, under Bavarian travel law, nightly accommodation reimbursements are capped at €120 for Munich and €90 for Garching. These thresholds apply to each individual night and cannot be averaged across a multi-night stay. For example, if the first night costs 50 EUR and the second night costs 150 EUR, the first night is fully reimbursed at 50 EUR, but the second night can be reimbursed for maximum 90 EUR (in Garching) or 120 EUR (in Munich). The MIAPbP staff will do their best to support you and reduce your financial burden.

How to calculate the maximum amount of reimbursement possible:

• Count number of weekdays at the programme + days of the weekend(s) in between [at which you are staying in the Garching/Munich area].
• Multiply number of days by 80€ = maximum amount.
• In case you arrive before your first day at MIAPbP (+ 40€) or leave after your last day at MIAPbP (+ 40€), please add the sum to the maximum amount.

Reimbursement on receipt is refund based on travel receipts. You have to provide original invoices (for travel, accommodation, public transportation). In case MIAPbP does not cover an invoice completely, we will return the original after noting the amount covered by MIAPbP.

Please make sure to have the invoices issued to your home address.
