Sourcing Voucher

The Sourcing Voucher strengthens the resilience of Austrian goods producers by subsidizing 50% (up to €7,500) of external consulting costs for accessing alternative procurement markets. Within a maximum project duration of nine months, expert services in supplier scouting and corporate financing are supported to make disrupted or at-risk supply chains more robust. As a grant measure, the program supports small, medium, and large enterprises throughout Austria and provides special incentives for sustainable foreign trade strategies and trade fair activities.

Eligible are active memberships in the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber or the chambers of civil engineers who generate substantial value added domestically and market their own products or services abroad. A prerequisite is that no sourcing activities have taken place in the chosen target country within the last two years (exception: Russian Federation and Belarus). Applications can be submitted until March 31, 2027. The grant covers up to 50% of eligible expenses for professional consulting services. Interested companies can find all formal guidelines in the funding account of the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber.
