  • How can we find project partners? Does JTS provide any support?

    One way to search for potential partners is sharing your project idea with others, including the potential partners, by filling the project idea form and approving its publishing on the web page. We strongly recommend you to make use of this option.

    Please also visit the section "Assistance" to find contacts of the relevant intermediary institutions and authorities on the county level, which can be helpful in finding your potential partners.

    Before the coming calls for proposals, the Programme organizes thematic partner search events. Please follow regularly the information on our website and sign up for receiving our news for more information.

  • Can we have an individual consultation about our project idea and specific question?

    Yes, the Joint Technical Secretariat of the Programme provides consultations to the applicants. You are welcome to contact the programme consultants or the information manager to make an appointment either at the JTS office in Tartu or at the Information Point in Riga. We ask you to submit the project idea form prior to the consultation, so that we can give you a better advice.

  • Our project qualifies for different priorities or different directions of support. What should we do?

    The project has to be submitted under one particular priority and one particular direction of support. We suggest that you study carefully the description and Programme indicators under each of the priorities (available in the Programme Manual) to decide which one suits your project best. You can also look at the financing section to see what funding is left under which priority.

  • If we use translation services for the project application, can we include these costs in our budget?

    Yes, translation costs are among the eligible expenses. However, you only get them reimbursed if your project gets approved. For more information about the eligible project preparation costs, please study the Programme Manual (5.3.8.)

  • Are construction costs eligible?

    Under Priority 3 - no.

    Under priorities 1 and 2 - yes, but only if construction is related to cross-border objects and strongly justified within the cooperatioon context. Please note that one project can include either the development of the technical project or the actual construction, but not both. We strongly recommend you to consult the JTS about your project ideas and discuss all the investment and construction plans before preparing the project.

  •  We are having problems with filling the application form. Where can we get help?

    Please contact JTS.
