Payment of an approved grant

If your grant is approved you will be sent invoicing instructions, including a purchase order number, to enable your organisation to uplift the funds. The invoice must be from your organisation as we are unable to pay suppliers directly.

When your funding is expended, it is important that you send copies of all relevant receipts or invoices to NSTPGrants@tepapa.govt.nz for filing.

Standard Te Papa terms are payment 20th of the month following the invoice date.

As a grant recipient, you are required to acknowledge the support received from National Services Te Paerangi, for example, in your organisation’s newsletter or website. We can provide a logo and usage guidelines.
