What is the amount of overhead costs?

Eligible costs may include additional (overhead) costs incurred in the direct time and material context of the project (e.g. administrative costs, support staff and infrastructure costs). The maximum amount of such costs is 20 % of the total eligible project costs requested from the MoH excluding the cost of acquisition of fixed assets, i.e. only non-investment costs. The additional (overhead) costs foreseen in the project proposal cannot be exceeded or requested to be increased during the course of the project. If these costs are not requested in the project proposal, they cannot be included among the eligible costs.

The overheads incurred must not exceed 1) the original amount planned in the approved project proposal and 2) 20 % of the total non-investment designated funds drawn from the MoH within the project.
