[[LLP Table 5a - Maximum eligible daily rates]]
===Subsistence Costs===
(1) Subsistence costs for staff undertaking travel to another participating country in the framework of Multilateral projects, Networks and Accompanying Measures are eligible. The budget should be based on the maximum rate in the Subsistence Costs table 5b below. Any surplus will be considered as ineligible. The rate to be applied is
the one of the country of destination, i.e. where accommodation costs are incurred.
(2) Costs may be claimed only for journeys directly connected to specific and clearly identifiable project-related activities. For information on charging Subsistence Costs for non-staff members please refer to Section ‘Other Costs’ and ‘Subcontracting Costs’.
(3) Reimbursement is based on the existing internal rules of the Partner organisations, which may be on an actual cost (reimbursement of receipts) or daily allowance basis. In either case, proof of attendance and overnight accommodation will be required to substantiate declared costs at reporting stage.
(4) Subsistence rates cover accommodation, meals and all local travel costs at the place of destination abroad (but not local travel costs incurred to travel from place of origin to place of destination). In calculating the number of days for which to apply the Daily Subsistence Rate it should be noted that a FULL day normally includes an overnight stay. In duly substantiated cases, a full day’s allowance without an overnight stay may be allowed with a pro rata reduction (costs limited to 50% of the maximum) for accommodation.
(5) A pro rata reduction must be applied if accommodation, meals and local travel costs are provided for by a third party. Eligible subsistence costs are calculated on the basis of scales of eligible unit costs. The Subsistence costs in Table 5b represent the maximum eligible daily rates. The resulting amounts will be included in the budget and will be taken into account when calculating the European Union contribution.
