Model grant agreement

Seventh Framework Programme. Model grant agreement

The European Commission adopted on 10 April 2007 the general model grant agreement to be used in research projects funded under the 7th Framework Programmes.

This model grant agreement is applicable to the indirect actions under the 'Cooperation' and 'Capacities' Specific Programmes of FP7. It consists of a core text and several annexes. There is also a list of special clauses to be introduced in the grant agreement where necessary.

The following links provide access to these documents. The original language of the grant agreement and its annexes is English. The translations into the other Community languages are provided to facilitate the understanding of the grant agreement and its annexes. They are not legally binding and are not officially sanctioned.

New annexes and some modifications to the annexes of the grant agreements have since been adopted (chronology of modifications).

Separate model grant agreements have been adopted for the parts of the 'Cooperation' (Space, Security), the 'Capacities' (Research for the benefit of SME's) and the 'People' (Marie Curie) Specific Programmes that are under REA responsibility and for the 'Ideas' (European Research Council) Specific Programmes.
