Eligibility for Horizon Europe Associated Countries means...

Short explanation

Association to Horizon Europe is the closest form of international cooperation in Horizon Europe. Entities of Associated Countries can participate in the Horizon Europe calls under the same conditions as entities from the EU Member States and are therefore eligible for funding, unless specific limitations or conditions are laid down in the work programme and/or call topic text.

Not only EU neighbouring countries can apply for association, any country in the world with a strong research and innovation capacity that share common values with Europe can apply for association to Horizon Europe.

There are 4 categories of countries eligible for association with Horizon Europe:

  • (a) European Free Trade Association (EFTA) members which are members of the European Economic Area (EEA)
  • (b) Acceding countries, candidate countries and potential candidates
  • (c) European neighbourhood policy countries
  • (d) Non-EU countries  and territories that fulfil a set of criteria related to their economic, political and research and innovation systems

Close to the start of the Association, transitional measures can be in place, through which entities of these countries have to be included as beneficiaries in call topics. Details are mentioned in the Horizon Europe Programme Guide.

Several countries in view of association foresee themselves before the start of the transitional measures, a Guarantee fund to provide funding for their applicants in successful applications.

 

All details regarding country eligibility is compiled in the infosheet “International cooperation".
