Property aid for micro-businesses: façade, accessibility and fit-out works
The catalogue indicates up to 20%, capped at €4,000, for an expenditure base of €5,000 to €20,000 excluding VAT. It also mentions a 30% ceiling on all public aid for the expenditure and one application every five years at most. Confirm the current rule and the date from which expenditure is eligible. Targeted operations: rehabilitation of façades and shop fronts; accessibility and compliance investment (removable ramps, toilet fit-out, reception desks, fitting rooms and miscellaneous accessibility works); property fit-out works (exterior and interior fit-out, layout, compliance, modernisation).
Craft, retail or service micro-businesses: check the size, sales area and turnover thresholds, as well as the explicitly excluded sectors, before ordering the works. Prepare separate quotes by item (façade/shop front, accessibility, fit-out), proof of headcount and turnover, the sales area, tax/social security certificates and a five-year history of aid received.
