The key documents in a Screen Flanders funding application are the application form and project budget form, which are available as downloads below. The two forms must be completed in full in Dutch and provide a complete picture of the project. If you cannot provide an answer to a question, please state your reasons clearly. Useful information can be found in the right-hand margin under the ‘Notes’ tab.
Please do not add extra tabs to the Excel documents or modify them in any way.
Read the Screen Flanders application guidelines carefully before applying. They contain important information regarding the application procedure, admissibility test, recoupment, compulsory reports, inspection and payments.
Promotional costs such as, but not confined to, Prints & Advertising (P&A), must be eliminated from the financing and expenses of the project budget.
Compulsory attachments
To give a complete picture of the project, a number of attachments are requested in addition to the application form. They are listed in the final question on the application form, which serves as a handy checklist, and form an integral part of the application. The application form states clearly whether an attachment is compulsory or optional. The attachments must be numbered in the same way. Templates for the compulsory attachments 1 (Statement on Honour), 20 (Wallimage or Screen Brussels support) and 21 (Recoupment statement) can be downloaded below.
