Effective January 1, 2024, the CSU has revised its Travel Policy for reimbursement of meals and incidentals expenses:

● For travel taking place on or after January 1, 2024, reimbursement for meals and incidental expenses will be based on federal per diem by geographical location. Receipts are now NOT required.
● The first and last day of travel is prorated at 75% of the daily per diem rate, inclusive of incidentals, regardless of the time travel begins or ends.
● When meals are provided as part of an event during the trip, the per diem amount must be reduced by the applicable amount for the meal that was provided.

Helpful per diem tool for the location you are traveling to. Once the destination state and city has been submitted, scroll down to find the per diem rate.

For travel that occurred before January 1, 2024, itemized receipts are required for reimbursement.

There are no changes to the transportation or lodging expenses at this time.

Detailed information and examples will be posted on the Accounting Services Travel website.
