ATTACHMENT B - Travel Authorization Request.pdf

This is a Travel Authorization Request form template used for documenting and obtaining approval for business travel expenses.

The form captures essential traveler information including the requestor's name, organization, position title, and travel dates along with origin and destination locations. It requires the traveler to specify the purpose of the trip and associate it with relevant tasks, subtasks, and/or deliverables, along with the duration of the trip excluding travel days. The approximate costs section itemizes four expense categories: transportation, lodging, per diem, and other miscellaneous expenses, with a total cost line. An approving official must review the request and indicate approval or denial by selecting "Yes" or "No," then sign the form and may provide additional comments. This template serves as an internal control mechanism to ensure travel expenses are pre-approved, properly documented, and linked to authorized contract work before funds are expended.
