E.1 - Are travel costs included in Fees and Charges?
Answer
Not all travel costs are included in fees or charges; they are charged separately under the following conditions:
- For certification tasks, the fee corresponding to the task does not include the travel costs outside the EU member states (Article 6 (1) and (2) of Implementing Regulation 2019/2153.
- For services related to certification tasks, the travel costs are charged in the same manner as the certification task (Article 6 (1) and (2)).
- For training services subject to charges, as defined in PART IIa of the Annex to CIR (EU) 2019/2153 , the cost of travel within and outside the EU member states shall be invoiced in addition to the charges due.
- All travel costs shall be divided accordingly amongst applicants if an expert worked on more than one project in the course of a single trip.
- An itemized breakdown of costs shall be provided without supporting documents (e.g. hotel bills, air fare) to protect the personal and financial data of the experts involved
