The purpose with the security fee is to confirm that the applicant accepts the apartment for his/her use. When an applicant gets the letter of confirmation and has been assigned a VOAS apartment, the housing offer also contains an invoice for the security fee that must be paid by the due date specified on the invoice.
If the applicant does not pay the security fee, it is regarded as a sign of refusing to accept the apartment and the applicant is dropped out of the waiting list.The security fee is 200€.
Agreements made for fixed period: processing fee 50€ must be paid with your first rent.
If one has paid the security fee but cancels the tenancy agreement latest two weeks before the agreement starts, the penalty fee is 200€. After that we follow the normal calendar months cancellation time.
The security is refunded to the resident within two months after the end of his/her lease period if the resident does not owe any rentals to VOAS and the apartment is left in a good condition to the next resident.
