The Partner shall present a request for the payment of the balance.

The template for the final payment request is available in the English and French version in the Reference documents page.

The payment request shall be accompanied by a declaration stating as follows:

I, hereby, declare that the information provided in the request for payment is complete, reliable and true. I also certify that the costs incurred are eligible in accordance with the Grant Agreement referred above and that the request for payment is substantiated by adequate records and supporting documents that can be produced upon request or in the context of the checks, review, audits and investigations provided for in Article 25 of the Grant Agreement.

The request will be signed by the legal representative of the organisation entitled to sign the agreement. The Partner will then attach the signed request as an Annex of the Final Report in APPEL. Failure to attach the payment request or any error detected will trigger the rejection of the Final Report.
