Precondition is a valid inter-institutional agreement between HSZG and the partner institution of your choice.

Teaching visits are possible from two days up to two months. Travel costs can be reimbursed (2 days). However, for budget reasons we can only guarantee a financing for 5 days in one academic year (including travel days). Travel and subsistence are looked at differently:

Travel expenses will be calculated on a one-way basis. The place of departure does not necessarily have to be the address of the sending institution. HSZG does not assume any liability for damage to cars, private or rented.

One-way distance (as per distance calculator)	Amount per participant (to and from)
< 100 km	n/a
100 - 499 km	€180
500 - 1,999 km	€275
2,000 - 2,999 km	€360
3,000 - 3,999 km	€530
4,000 - 7,999 km	€820

The calculation of subsistence costs is based on a day rate and differ from country to country:

Host country	Amount per day and participant
Denmark, Ireland, Netherlands, Sweden, United Kingdom	€160
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxemburg, Norway, Poland, Romania, Turkey	€140

Grant Agreement

Before you go, we will send you a Grant Agreement that includes information on the amount of support you receive and other important terms regarding your visit. This Agreement must be signed by you and sent back in duplicate (including the original copy).
Conditions

The minimum number of teaching hours is eight over your entire STA period, irrespective of whether you stay for two or seven days. You can only receive support for days you have actually taught. Be sure to keep records and confirmations of any teaching assignments on weekends or holidays.
Final report

You are required to complete a final report when you return. This Erasmus+ survey must be completed within 30 days after having received the automated email.
Travel expenses

You can claim amounts for travel and subsistence without receipts. However, please do keep your travel vouchers (airline tickets, hotel bills, bus tickets etc), as we have to report any lump sums paid to the revenue office. They may be needed to serve as proof of expense on your tax return.
Reclaims

Your travel and subsistence grant must be supported by complete application documents and your final report. Any lump sumps paid will be reclaimed from you if necessary documents are missing.
