- copies of source documents (invoices, prepayment invoices, order forms, cashier cheques, receipts, fee forms, etc.);
- copies of documents that prove payment (payment order, bank statement, cash slips in case of cash payments, etc.).
In case, upon payment of fees, it can be determined from documents that prove payment (from the explanation of a payment order or cash slip) who has been paid by transfer or cash for what, copies of source documents (concluded contracts) do not have to be annexed to the report. In this case, the list of fees along with documents that prove payment will suffice.
Example 1: If the budget for organizing an event was xxx euros and the amount allocated by the Cultural Endowment was also xxx euros, copies of the aforementioned financial documents shall be annexed to the report in the extent of xxx euros.
Example 2: If the budget for organizing an event was xxx euros, but the amount allocated by the Cultural Endowment was only x euros, copies of the aforementioned financial documents shall be annexed to the report also in the extent of only x euros.
Please compile copies of source and payment documents to be submitted as annexes to the report by types of expenses.
