Before, During and After the Mobility
All mobility participants must always consult the Erasmus+ Outgoing Mobility Participant Checklist regarding the documentation to be submitted to the CyI Erasmus Office and the corresponding timeline.
Before
Successful applicants receive an email from the Erasmus Office informing them on the process and necessary documentation to be sent to CyI Erasmus Office.
1. Invitation/Acceptance letter from the receiving institution
2. Learning/Mobility Agreement (completed and signed by the participant, sending and receiving institution)
3. Evidence of adequate insurance coverage abroad for the entire duration of the mobility:
a) Health insurance (compulsory for all types of mobility)
For intra-European mobiltiies, it is recommended that EU participants are in possession of a European Health Insurance Card. This is a free card that gives access to medically necessary, state-provided healthcare during a temporary stay in any of the 27 EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. More information on the card and how to obtain it is available here. Please note that this coverage may not be sufficient for all situations, for example in case of repatriation or special medical intervention. In that case, a complementary private health insurance may be needed.
b) Accident insurance, covering damages to yourself at the workplace, death, repatriation expenses, permanent disability (compulsory for traineeship/training mobilities)
c) Liability insurance covering damages you may cause at the workplace; third-party liability (compulsory for traineeship/training mobilities)
d) Insurance against loss or theft of documents, travel tickets and luggage (not compulsory but recommended)
4. Grant Agreement (prepared by Erasmus Office)
5. Request for Leave of Absence for Business Travel (download form from Procurement Hub)
6. Tickets invoice
7. Payment Acknowledgement (for students receiving 80% before the start of the mobility)

Financial Support
All mobility participants are eligible to receive an Erasmus+ grant, which consists of:
- A travel support grant
- An individual support grant
1. Travel Support
The travel support grant amount is fixed and is calculated based on travel distance between the sending institution and the venue of the mobility activity. Travel distances are calculated using the distance calculator supported by the European Commission (the distance of a one-way travel is used to calculate the grant for the round trip).
