State Secretary Keijzer of Economic Affairs states in a Chamber letter that the emergency helpdesk, where a one-off payment of €4,000 can be collected, is being expanded once again. She does, however, state that this is the final amendment to the scheme.
Expansion of SBI codes
To be eligible for the allowance, the applicant must be registered with the Chamber of Commerce under a designated SBI code. The list of designated SBI codes is being expanded to include, amongst others, hearing aid specialists, bakeries, caravan repairers, and supermarkets located at campsites, railway stations, transport terminals, university campuses and leisure parks.
The list of corrections is published on the website from RVO. That’s also where the full list which can be found using qualifying SBI codes.
Village halls and community centres
The TOGS scheme is also being opened up to village halls and community centres, partly in response to a motion in the House of Representatives. These organisations have been able to submit an application via the RVO website since 12 June 2020.
Applications must be submitted by 26 June at the latest
Applications for financial assistance from the emergency assistance scheme can by 26 June 2020 at the latest be submitted.
TOGS becomes TVL
The successor to the TOGS is the Fixed Costs Allowance (TVL). See our article TOGS Emergency Helpdesk becomes TVL. Unfortunately, the exact details of the TVL are not yet known.
