Travel & Expenses

With a receipt or paid invoice, UND will reimburse business expenses for internet charges, rental cars, copies, faxes, shipping, and postage.

In addition, with written business justification, UND may reimburse for other business expenses such as mandatory bellman/maid charges, late check-out fees, business calls, cancellation charges; and international travel expenses such as currency exchange fees and immunizations. In very limited cases, UND will reimburse for travel insurance or GPS charges.

If you do not have a receipt/invoice for a transaction, you will need to contact the vendor for a replacement receipt/invoice. If you are not able to get a replacement receipt/invoice, the missing receipt form will need to be completed.

(Note: UND will reimburse for a cab without a receipt costing $10.00 or less.)
