Apply for compensation under the Infection Protection Act for additional expenses incurred during periods of lost earnings
Description
Self-employed persons in particular may suffer a loss of earnings due to quarantine or ban on work incur additional expenses. For example, many self-employed people have to pledge their valuables due to the threat to their livelihood.
If you are also affected by this, these additional expenses can be reimbursed to a reasonable extent.
This is a so-called "optional benefit". This means that the authorities have leeway to assess whether a claim exists and how high it is.
In the event of quarantine or a ban on work, you are entitled to compensation for any additional expenses incurred if
- you are entitled to compensation for your loss of earnings
- the additional expenses are incurred due to the loss of earnings and
- your livelihood is at risk.
- Application form
- Proof of the additional expenses incurred
- Proof of payment
- Proof of the threat to existence
None.
For reimbursement, please contact the State Administration Office.
