What is mandate letter? Do we need it?

Mandate letters are essential before you apply to Erasmus+ KA1 and KA2 projects. It is a bilateral agreement between the coordinating organisation and each partner organisation taking part in an Erasmus+ project by which the partner organisation authorizes the coordinating organisation to act on its behalf in matters related to the project implementation.

As regards the Erasmus+ actions managed by National Agencies , a mandate must be provided:

  • For Key Action 1 – Learning Mobility of Individuals:
    • by all partner organisations for mobility actions in the youth field;
    • by the organisations that are members of a national consortium in the fields of higher education, school education, vocational education and training, and adult education.

 

  • For Key Action 2 – Strategic Partnerships:
    • By all partner organisations, except for:
      • partner organisations in projects involving schools only

 

  • For Key Action 3 – Structured Dialogue in the youth field:
    • By all partner organisations

As indicated in the Erasmus+ Programme Guide, grant agreement models will be made available on the Commission’s website as soon as possible.

Here is whats is written in Mandate Letter and where you have to change. Sample mandate can be downloaded from our website. The mandate can be in your mother tongue and also in English. Please do mind that, if the partnership is international, you have to prepare the mandate in English.
