Application for solidarity contribution
Although the cultural sector itself is hugely affected by the measures to combat the corona virus, the authors, composers and publishers of Sabam want to show solidarity with other affected sectors.

That is why Sabam concluded an agreement with the catering federation of Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia and the Unions of independent entrepreneurs Unizo and UCM. Catering and commercial establishments that were obliged to close their doors can apply for a solidarity contribution worth 1 month of copyright.

You can request your solidarity contribution quickly and easily via your personal account on MyUnisono.
