4.2.1. Eligibility of the applicant and of the partners
Applicants and partners must comply with the following requirements:
(a) Legal status: Applicants and partners must be legally constituted public or private organisations, or international organisations.
Bodies set up by the European Union falling under Article 208 of the Financial Regulations (EU bodies and institutions) are not eligible for funding and cannot submit applications. They can be associated to an application, but their costs will not be co-financed.
Only legally constituted organisations can participate. Natural persons (private individuals) are not allowed to submit applications.

(b) Bodies and organisations which are profit-oriented can apply, be it as applicant or as partner, only in partnership with private non-profit or public organisations.
‘Non-profit organisation’ can be

2) has a legal or statutory obligation not to distribute profits to its shareholders or individual members. The provision that profits will not be distributed must be clearly stipulated either in the law or in the statutes of the organisation; decisions on (not) distributing profits made by its managing board, associates, stakeholders, members or representatives are not sufficient proof of the non-profit nature.

(c) Eligible country: Applicant and partners must be legally established in an eligible country. This is not applicable for International organisations.
