International Travel

There are currently no international travel restrictions mandated by UNO or the UL System; however, a traveler must obtain approval in advance from the President's Office for all International Travel.  The approval is documented on a Workday Spend Authorization. To ensure the Spend Authorization is routed for proper the approvals, "International City" must be selected as the destination on the Spend Authorization.

International travelers will be reimbursed based on the U.S. Department of State per diem rates for meals and lodging.
