Every household, business or charity in Scotland directly affected by flood water will get a grant of £1,500, Nicola Sturgeon has announced.
The first minister outlined the details of new funding for those hit by recent severe weather during a visit to Inverurie in Aberdeenshire.
She said more than £12m would be made available to help areas struck by storms and flooding.
Businesses whose trade was affected can also apply for an extra £3,000.
Hundreds of people were evacuated in Aberdeenshire after the Rivers Dee, Don and Ythan burst their banks in the early hours of Friday.
It followed Storm Frank at the end of last month which saw flooding in other parts of the country, including Tayside and the Borders.
It is estimated the recent storms could have cost the Scottish economy £700m so far.
