Bavarian return programme Here you will find additional funding options (“funding modules”) that can be used to support you in the event of a voluntary return and reintegration in your country of origin. You can only receive these "funding modules" if you are resident in the Free State of Bavaria.
The "Bavarian Return Programme" is a support programme of the Free State of Bavaria developed by the Bavarian State Office for Asylum and Repatriations to promote voluntary return to the country of origin. This Bavarian guideline supplements the existing programmes, in particular REAG/GARP 2.0, StarthilfePlus, Frontex-JRS, and is based on the individual needs of people interested in leaving the country. As part of return counselling, funding is determined from the following components: - luggage transport - Personal reintegration assistance - Business start-up grant - Qualification and education subsidy - Housing allowance - Bridging allowance for people in special circumstances for up to 12 months - Medical support - Further individual special requirements
In Bavaria, applications for funding under the "Bavarian Return Programme" can only be made as part of return counselling at the Central Foreigners Authorities (ZAB), the Central Return Counselling Centres (ZRB) or "Coming Home".
You can find more information on the funding programme of the Free State of Bavaria under "Bavarian Return Programme".
There is no legal entitlement to return and reintegration benefits under the “Bavarian Return Programme”. This is a voluntary task of the Free State.
