If you are receiving unemployment benefit, you can ask to receive all the remaining benefit in one go to create your own full-time job. You need to present a viable plan at the job centre; the answer usually takes 60 to 90 working days.
If you find it hard to get a job or credit and want to start or grow a small business, you can ask for microcredit of up to €20,000 with a guarantee and lower interest, plus free help to prepare your project. Young unemployed people get priority.
If you are unemployed and registered at the employment center, you can get free help to create your own business or job. You receive support to build your business plan and, during the first two years, guidance and management consulting.
If you are registered at the job centre (unemployed, looking for a first job up to age 35, or self-employed on a low income), you can ask a bank for a guaranteed, lower-interest loan to start your small business: up to €20,000 (MICROINVEST) or up to €100,000 (INVEST+), with nothing to pay in year one.
