Travel Guidelines

Out-of-State Mileage

When claiming mileage to travel outside the state of Texas, mileage reimbursement will be limited to the lowest available airfare for that business itinerary. A cost comparison must be attached to the expense report for any personal mileage claimed for out of state travel. The cost comparison must contain documentation (screen print, quotes, etc.) of the costs of the airfare for that business itinerary. When calculating the mileage, it will be limited to the cost of the documented lowest available airfare. Mileage must still be calculated and, if less than the airfare, only the calculated amount may be claimed. Follow the rules under In-State Mileage to calculate and document the mileage.
