Support for Tourism Activity Development
For tourism studies, the aid may reach 50% of eligible costs, capped at €20,000, with minimum costs of €5,000. For tourism projects, the maximum rate is 20%, the cap €45,000 and the minimum costs €20,000 (€10,000 for digital tools). Exclusions and sector criteria apply.
The Bourgogne-Franche-Comté Region’s support for developing tourism activities backs sustainable projects that create a new visitor offer, improve visitor reception or upgrade an existing activity. The scheme distinguishes tourism studies from investments made on eligible sites and activities.
