According to the news item, the current criteria remain valid for applications filed up to and including 3 January 2027. This page does not say whether applications can be filed now.
Which vehicles, and what can be added
For applications filed from 4 January 2027, the province says that the admitted motor vehicles are battery electric (BEV) and hydrogen fuel cell (FCEV) motor vehicles. The announcement adds that plug-in hybrids and electric motor vehicles with a range extender are excluded from 4 January 2027. The base contribution announced for motor vehicles is EUR 2,000.
The news item says that, for motor vehicles, EUR 2,000 can be added to the base contribution for the first ISEE band, up to an ISEE of EUR 20,000, and EUR 1,000 for the second ISEE band, from EUR 20,000.1 to EUR 40,000.

The dealer discount and leasing
The province says that, under the new criteria, the purchase of a motor vehicle in ownership will require a dealer discount of at least EUR 2,000 excluding VAT, in addition to other contributions and to the scrappage supplement. It is a dealer discount, not a contribution. The announcement says that the dealer discount will no longer be required for leasing and long-term rental.
Steps, and what this page leaves out
The announcement states that, under the new criteria, the application must be filed before the invoice or payment, if earlier, exclusively through myCivis, with the estimate and ISEE certification attached. The announcement adds that the payment claim will go through myCivis, that only electronic invoices will be accepted and that only traceable payments, with proof of actual execution, will be admitted.
