Working internationally often comes with many organisational questions. The Info Point on the touring Artists website provides artists and creatives with information and guidance for their international activities to and from Germany.

It offers practical support on topics such as visas and residence, taxes, social security, contracts, transport, and other aspects of cross-border work in the cultural sector.

The Info Point helps artists and cultural professionals navigate international mobility with greater confidence and better preparation.

We would like to highlight the Music Mobility Funding Guide, a publication created by On the Move and Music Export Poland that provides artists and music professionals with an overview of funding opportunities supporting international mobility.

The guide is designed for musicians planning activities such as international tours, as well as professionals seeking support for research, development, and cross-border projects. It serves as a useful reference to explore available funding programmes for music-related travel, exchange, and collaboration across Europe and beyond.

The publication can help identify potential resources and opportunities for artists and professionals looking to expand their international activities.
