Find out if your organisation is eligible to apply for Erasmus+ with our quick guide.

Without eligible legal status your organisation cannot take part in Erasmus+.  This page defines who or what can take part in the programme and provides some pointers about how to prove the legal status of your organisation.

We also advise you to read the Erasmus+ Programme Guide for additional information about who can take part: you can find a link to the guide to the right of the article.  In the guide you’ll find the information you need in Part C, Information for Applicants.
