Grant on the Purchase of a Bicycle and a Pedelec Bicycle

Overview

In order to encourage the use of bicycles and pedelecs (electric bicycles) as means of transport that reduce both pollution and traffic and at the same time encourage physical activity, the Minister for Finance has launched this scheme whereby a once-only grant of 15.25% on the purchase price of a bicycle is granted to eligible applicants.

What you'll get

Applicants will get 15.25% of the expense, up to a maximum​ of €85 for a bicycle and up to €250 for a pedelec (electric bicycle).​
