Parents of triplets or more multiples born since January 1, 2019 are entitled to support. The prerequisite for payment is that the parents are registered in North Rhine-Westphalia at the time of the birth.
What do I get?
The multiple birth grant is a one-off payment of 1,000 euros per child. The Minister President of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia is also the honorary godparent for the multiple birth children.
