Draft amending budget 1/2025: surplus of the financial year 2024

The European Commission is submitting to the European Parliament and the Council a draft amending budget No 1 to the 2025 budget, which aims to include in the 2025 budget the surplus resulting from the implementation of the 2024 financial year.

The execution of the 2024 financial year shows a surplus of approximately EUR 1.3 billion, which is therefore included as revenue in the 2025 budget.

The budgeting of this surplus will reduce the total contribution of Member States to the financing of the 2025 budget accordingly. Member States' contributions will also be influenced by the revised forecasts for own resources; these figures, which will be available after the meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources to be held in the course of 2025, will be incorporated into a subsequent draft amending budget.
