Memoranda of Understanding

In individual cases, memoranda of understanding are a preliminary stage to an exchange or cooperation agreement and are concluded in particular when a formalised agreement is a mandatory component of application procedures, e.g. for the acquisition of funding with international partner organisations. The maximum term of such letters of intent is usually two years.
