The travel support is calculated based on the travel distances by using the distance calculator supported by the European Commission. The following unit costs apply depending on the travel distances identified through the calculator:

The student mobility minimum duration is 2 months and the incoming students to VUM are expected to study at VUM for at least 63 days. The students are expected to cover their visa costs from the mobility grant transferred following their arrival to Bulgaria. The final grant amount is calculated based on the actual number of stays at VUM after the mobility start date by applying the Erasmus+ distance calculator available here. The mobility starts on the day following the Grant Agreement signing between VUM and incoming student and the advanced funding bank transfer to a student’s bank account in Bulgaria. The bank account opening, Grant Agreement signing, and advanced payment transfer usually take place during the first working day after the student’s arrival in Bulgaria.
