Entitled to

A claim for travel expenses must be made in writing using the reimbursement form (§ 36).

The right to claim travel expenses expires if this claim is not made to the Department of Human Resources Management within six calendar months, starting from the calendar month in which the end of the business trip falls (§ 36).

 

Workplace

The starting and finishing point of each business trip is the office or workplace of the respective employee. In the business travel application, however, the employee's home can be specified as the starting or finishing point if this results in lower travel fees (§ 5 Para. 1).

The business trip begins upon leaving the workplace or (nearby) home.
