School Transport Subsidy

If you are a full-time student at an upper secondary school or if you are studying for a basic vocational degree or attending some other programme of basic vocational education, Kela will compensate you for the cost of your daily travel to and from school, provided that the one-way trip from home to school is at least 10 kilometres and the travel costs exceed EUR 54 per month. You will be required to pay at least EUR 43 of the total monthly cost yourself.

A separate application for school transport subsidy must be submitted for each academic year on form KM1. File the application with your school, which will forward it to Kela
