Late submission of an application

Applications for Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps have a set deadline, visible on the home screen and in the header of the form. If the deadline expires, applicants will not be able to submit their applications.

An exception is made if the applicant can prove that they tried to apply before the official application deadline and were not able to do so for technical reasons. In such case the applicant must contact their National Agency.

The late application may still be considered for late submission if the following three conditions are met:

1. The date and time of the last submission attempt as mentioned in the electronic application form History section are before the applicable official application deadline.
2. The applicant has informed the National Agency within 24 hours after the application deadline (Brussels time). After this time, the request can no longer be considered.
3. The applicant has sent to the National Agency within 24 hours after the application deadline (Brussels time), by email, a complete application form unmodified after their submission attempt (in pdf form). See how to print the form for details.

The National Agency will then decide whether to accept the late submission or not. If it is accepted, the National Agency will reopen the application and give the applicant permission to either only submit or make changes to the application before submitting it.

The new deadline for submission will be communicated by the National Agency, and the number of days left for late submission is also displayed in the My applications tab. The original call/round deadline remains displayed inside the form.

After the application is reopened, submit it in the same way as described under Submitting an application.
