Travel Guidelines
The purpose of this traveler's guide is to help employees understand travel rules and regulations and to provide instructions on how to be reimbursed for their expenses. This guide addresses general travel circumstances and may not cover every reimbursement issue. Please contact the Business Office for specific or unique circumstances. The basic rule to remember is that only actual, necessary and reasonable business expenses will be reimbursed.
All Travel vouchers must be submitted to the Business Office no later than 30 days from completion of trip.
