Rent compensation
The subsidies apply to those entrepreneurs who were not able to use their rented premises (a room, set of rooms or a market stand) for agreed business purposes or the use of these premises was significantly limited due to the restrictive measures imposed to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
The extent of the financial compensation (subsidy) will be equal to the amount of the discount on rent based on the agreement between the landlord and the tenant, maximum up to 50% of rent for the rent period affected by the restrictions. If the landlord is a state property administrator, the rent payment is reduced by half.
The tenant pays rent for the period of restricted use in the final amount reduced by the rent discount as well as by the rent compensation subsidy provided to the tenant. The tenant can repay the overdue rent in no more than 48 equal monthly repayments.
