How do I prove eligibility?

Eligibility is demonstrated by completing and submitting the "Affidavit of Eligibility of the Candidate/Co-Candidate", which is part of the tender, depending on the type of institution, i.e. either for legal entities or natural persons. This declaration is now extended to include a declaration on the budgetary rules (previously a separate affidavit).

Complete the affidavit, no signature required, and send it via data mail (preferred alternative). Electronic signatures may be accepted via data box, but physically signed affidavits can only be delivered by post or in person.

The affidavit is not required for research organisations, institutions that are on the list of research organisations of the Ministry of Education and Science (https://msmt.gov.cz/vyzkum-a-vyvoj-2/seznam-vyzkumnych-organizaci) do not have to provide any document related to research organisations, an institution that meets the definition of a research organisation and is not on the list of research organisations (Ministry of Education and Science) sends a declaration that it meets the definition of a research organisation and proves it by the activities carried out, e.g. business register, articles of association, etc.

Institutions outside the ČR must prove their eligibility by means of an affidavit included in the competition announcement.

Professional competence is demonstrated according to the nature of the project, these annexes are inserted directly to the project in the ISVP.
