Frequently Requested Travel Expense Information

How To Document Airfare, Lodging or Registration Fee Payments Made Over the Web

To obtain a valid receipt when using web-based tools, web pages that contain the needed documentation for airfare, lodging, and registration payments should be printed out during booking and attached to the reimbursement request, payment mechanism, or purchasing card log. The following information, by type of expenditure, is required:

Airfare
  • Class of travel (classes other than coach must have prior approval before booking)
  • Confirmation of payment
  • Dates of flight
  • Flight itinerary
  • Price of any additional charges (exit/aisle seat, extra baggage, or change fees)
  • Price of flight
Lodging*
  • Confirmation of payment including total charged
  • Dates of stay
  • Number of guests and UW affiliation
  • Total daily room rate cost and taxes if any
Registration Fees
  • Attendee(s)
  • Confirmation of payment
  • Cost
  • Dates
  • Location
  • Title of event
  • What cost includes (meals, books, supplies)

* Hotels and motels continue to provide a detailed invoice/folio upon checkout. You should continue to obtain the detailed invoice and submit it for reimbursement. If you are unable to obtain the original detailed invoice/folio you must indicate on your TER form why you are providing only the e-receipt or faxed receipt for lodging. If any of the information is unobtainable, you must explain why the required information is not available before submitting your documentation for payment or reimbursement.
