The indemnity is paid to a foster family (except for a specialized foster family) into which a child has been placed in foster care for a period longer than one month by a decision of the Orphan's and Custody Court and an agreement has been concluded between the municipality and the foster family.
The amount of indemnity depends on the number of children placed in foster care.
