Educational support (BAföG) Permit for interns

Source: BUS Rheinland-Pfalz

You can receive educational support if you complete an internship with a minimum duration of 3 months in connection with your school education or studies. Internships abroad in connection with the attendance of secondary general education schools are not eligible.

For you as an intern, the monthly requirement is the amounts that are also paid for the visit to the training center with which the internship is related.

In the case of an internship abroad, a lump-sum reimbursement of travel expenses is also provided. If you prove that you have taken out health insurance abroad, you will receive a subsidy for the costs. In the case of an internship in non-European countries, surcharges or reductions on demand may be made to compensate for differences in purchasing power.

If you want to apply for BAföG for a domestic internship in connection with a school education, you must submit your application to the Office for Educational Support responsible for the promotion of school education. As a rule, it is the Office for Educational Support in whose district your parents have the permanent residence. The offices for educational support are set up at the district administrations and the administrations of the district-free cities.

If you want to apply for BAföG for a domestic internship in connection with a course of study, you must submit your application to the Office for Educational Support of the respective university.

If you want to apply for BAföG for an internship abroad, the responsibility for both pupils and students lies with the central international offices for educational support (which vary depending on the destination country).
