What is GovTrip?
GovTrip is a web-based travel management tool selected by USDA as the official travel system for all its agencies. The implementation of GovTrip within the REE agencies was effective March 10, 2008. GovTrip is a travel planning, obligating, booking, and payment system. Authorizations, with the exception of open authorizations will obligate funds when the authorization is approved. The use of GovTrip is mandated by the Federal Travel Regulation, Section 301-50.3.
