Entschädigung nach dem Infektionsschutzgesetz für nicht gedeckte Betriebskosten beantragen

Have you had to close your business or practice due to a ban on activities or quarantine? Here you will find information on how to obtain reimbursement of ongoing uncovered operating costs.

In the event of a ban on work or quarantine, as a self-employed person you are entitled to compensation for loss of earnings as well as compensation for any operating expenses that are not covered, such as rent or loans.

This only applies to operating costs that cannot be avoided.

You must also keep operating costs as low as possible.

Reimbursement is made to a reasonable extent.

This is a so-called "optional benefit". This means that the authority has leeway to assess whether a claim exists and how high it is.
