Erasmus+ offer travel reimbursement in the amount of 50 € to students who choose to take the train, bus, or carpool to and/or from their study destination in Europe. The reimbursement will be made at the same time as the second payment of the Erasmus+ grant. The cost for the ticket, the destination and a confirmation number must be clearly stated on the receipt. The ticket/-s must include your name, all destinations along the track and all dates.
In the new Erasmus programme, there is also a possibility to be eligible for travel days.

The daily amount is linked to the destination and is the same as the scholarship (calculated per day).
