VAT
The amounts must be stated exclusive of VAT. The grant from the Mondriaan Fund is awarded exclusive of VAT, unless the applicant is not liable for VAT. In the latter case, a statement to that effect from the Tax and Customs Administration (‘Belastingdienst’) should be sent.
The Mondriaan Fund asks that you provide a clear and specified overview of the variable project costs.
This is subject to the following:

- The maximum contribution from the Mondriaan Fund is 50% if it concerns a specific commission, unless otherwise stated in the online explanation on the scheme on the website;

- The applicant is expected to pay a realistic fee to the artist, based on the Guideline for Artists’ Fees or those of the Central Government Real Estate Agency;
- Art and heritage organisations may not apply for artists’ fees through Art Commission, but should instead submit their applications through the Guideline for Artists’ Fees scheme;
