Green Loan for eco-friendly technologies

No, you can get the Green Loan even if you are not yet a client of VÚB.

You only need an ID and documents certifying the investment made (if you already have them). If you are a self-employed person, you will also need to submit a tax amount certificate (based on the filed tax return) and a tax payment certificate.

The obligation to prove the intended use of the provided funds must be met within 12 months from the date of drawing the loan. Documents certifying the intended use can also be submitted using the Remote Bank option in VÚB Internet Banking or Mobile Banking.

If you fail to prove the purpose of using the Green Loan funds in time, the preferential interest rate will no longer be applied and will be increased by 2% p.a.
If your repayment period is longer than 96 months, we’ll help you calculate your monthly instalments at any branch.

A representative example of the VÚB Loan with a Reward, i.e. a discount on the interest rate, and without the Green Loan benefit:
For a VÚB Loan with a Reward, i.e. a 2% discount on the interest rate, and without the Green Loan benefit in the amount of €7,000.00, with an interest rate of 11.90% p.a. and a repayment period of 96 months, the monthly annuity instalment is €113.39. The annual percentage rate of charge (APRC) is 13.42% and the number of instalments is 96. The loan origination fee is 2% of the loan amount, in this case €140.

The granting of the loan under the specified conditions is subject to approval by the Bank and depends on the assessment of the applicant’s ability to repay the loan.

Yes, but the document certifying the completion of the “green” project must be issued no more than 12 months before applying for the Green Loan.

You will receive the Reward in the form of a 2% discount on the interest rate as soon as you draw the Green Loan – you will pay lower monthly instalments right from the start.

To maintain the preferential interest rate, you must meet two criteria: Firstly, you must repay the loan regularly and on time. Secondly, if you want to make an extraordinary instalment or an early repayment before the agreed maturity date, you may only do so under the following conditions:
•    with a repayment period of 13–36 months, the loan may not be repaid early (in full or partially) for the entire repayment period
•    with a repayment period of 37–96 months, the loan may not be repaid (in full or partially) sooner than after 3 years and not before half of the repayment period has elapsed.
The interest rate discount will also lapse if:
•    you are in arrears with paying two or more consecutive annuity instalments or any other monetary obligations under the loan agreement
For more information about the terms of the benefit, please use the CONTACT service or visit any VÚB branch.
