Travel costs for NFFA users at DESY will be reimbursed in accordance with the general rules set by NFFA (see document available for download on the right side of this webpage) and as requested in the NFFA proposal.
In general, travel costs for a maximum number of two participants will be reimbursed. Costs for shipment or transportation of equipment cannot be covered. A maximum of 500€ per person can be granted for travel, the reimbursement will never exceed the actual travel cost. A maximum contribution of 100€ per person and per day can be reimbursed for accomodation and daily allowance in total.
Therefore we ask our users to seek for accomodation in the DESY hostel. The DESY hostel has to be booked via DESY Hostel.
Only if the DESY Hostel is fully booked we will partly cover the costs for a hotel (up to 100€ for hotel and daily allowance in total per day)
Please consult the documents provided for download on the right hand side of this page and contact the User Office for any questions on the travel reimbursement procedure related to your NFFA experiment a DESY and to inform us about the participants and the length of your stay.
For reimbursement, download the reimbursement form and fill in one form for each person to be reimbursed (max 2 persons) and send it together with all original receipts, invoices and tickets (or boarding cards in case of e-tickets) to:
