Learn what work expenses can be direct-billed and how to submit them
March 17, 2026 •
Paying out-of-pocket can add up if you have frequent work expenses. That’s why the Business Resource Center Travel and Entertainment team makes it easy for you to direct-bill many travel expenses to your department.
Eligible direct-bill expenses include:
- Airfare
- Lodging (select hotels only)
- Conference registrations
UCOP employee travelers can also opt for a university corporate T&E credit card to pay for business travel expenses.
At the next Travel Talk Tuesday, taking place on Tuesday, March 24, BRC colleagues will cover which expenses can be direct-billed, how to request direct-bill payment and how to submit a university corporate T&E credit card application. This session will feature a PowerPoint presentation and live demonstration.
