Accounting

Here you will find information and templates for preparing the expenditure report for your inm-funded project and a guideline for drawing up a fee contract. Information for the expenditure report for projects from 2023 onwards will be provided in the near future.

If your project is funded by inm, you are obliged to submit an expenditure report in due time after the completion of your project. An expenditure report represents the course of the project and proves that the funds received were used as planned (in accordance with the most recently approved financial budget).

Since inm is obliged to check 100% of the expenditures, complete receipts and bank statements must always be submitted as part of the expenditure report.
