How to apply
Regional business development aid is applied for from your regional authority through the state administration's e-service; rural instruments are applied for in Ruokavirasto's Hyrrä service. In both, apply before starting the project — costs incurred before the application is submitted are typically not eligible at all.
Regional eligibility does the heavy lifting: the same project can get a very different support level depending on your municipality's support area. Verify your region's status before building the budget.
Decisions reference your project plan literally, so describe concrete measures and costs, not ambitions. Check current terms with the granting authority before applying.
