Applying from outside Europe

Check whether non-residents can apply. Some calls are limited to artists from a country or region, and the eligibility line says so.

Look at the currency of any fee or award, and how shipping or travel works for your work and for you.

Time zones matter for deadlines. The listing page links to the organizer, where the exact cut-off is stated.
