My research grant budget includes funding for a trip, and the budget has been approved by the granting agency. Do I need any further agency advance “approval” for the trip?
Many federal agencies require written approval prior to each foreign trip whether or not the trip was included in the proposed budget. Check with the Office of Research and Project Administration (ORPA) in advance of the trip if you’re in doubt about your grant’s coverage of travel or for a particular trip.
