European funding guide

Grant program (LIIA) If you're a micro or small merchant, use the LIIA grant program "Support for the digitisation of business processes" to recieve up to 5000 EUR support for the creation of an online store or website! To submit your project for review, you must fill out the “Digital Maturity Test”, that can be found on the European Centre for Digital Innovation homepage. When filling out this form, you’ll be handed a digital road map, where you will see a catalogue of digital solutions. Examine it and choose which offer resonates with you the most. (A little preview of the solution we offer) When you have examined the market and found the best solution, then you must apply for the development of a digital road map and sign a contract with EDIC for the development of the road map. In the span of 30 days, you’ll collectively create an optimized road map for you. After this step, you have to hand in your project (business.gov.lv). After submitting this application, it will be processed within 30 days. When the form gets accepted, a contract will be concluded with you and the implementation of the project will begin (for a small grant within 1 year / for a large grant within 2 years.) After the completion of the project and when all the documents have been settled (payment of the Acceptance / Transfer Act), you return to EDIC and fill out the Digital Maturity Test. Then you’ll be granted an opinion. Then head to LIAA (business.gov.lv) and submit a payment request, that will be processed within 30 days. Consider! - At least 3 service providers are interviewed and the prices have been looked at (market examination). - If the planned contract sum is 70,000 or more (without VAT), a procurement plan must be submitted at the start of the project. - Within the procurement project, it must be carried out in accordance with the regulatory enactments in the field of public procurement (MK Rules No. 104 of 28.02.2017) - Within 30 days of project implementation, a payment request must be submitted to the LIAA together with a second digital maturity test and an EDIC opinion on improvements. Initiation of project activities: After submitting the request but cannot be done before the decision of LIAA (a recommendation to wait for the decision). Demands - The tax debt does not exceed 150 EUR or there is an agreement on payment. - Activities of the project can be connected (combined) with the ALTUM program 2.2.1.4.i. “Financial instruments for promoting the digital transformation of merchants”, but not allowing double financing. - No sanctions - Does not cause significant damage - NO bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation procedure, fraud or criminal organization. - If the merchant is active in both un-supported and supported industries, then he has to accept, that the supported actions and financial flows will be separated, ensuring, that activities in the un-supported field and unsupported activities will not benefit from the funding.
