MOD closes EGMP Review to new applications

The EGMP Review is closed to new applications from 23 July 2026. Applications submitted before closure will be processed.

The UK government created the Ex Gratia Medical Payments policy to support former locally employed staff in Afghanistan who were injured due to MOD employment between 2001 and 2021. The EGMP scheme closed to new applications in 2021.

The EGMP Review began in June 2020 to enable reviews of payments. As of 23 July 2026, the EGMP Review is closed to new applications. Those who have already applied will no longer be able to provide further evidence. All applications received before closure will be processed.
