To get reimbursed for fuel and mileage expenses, travelers on University business should:
- Submit a claim for fuel when a University-owned vehicle or rental car is driven.
- Submit a claim for mileage when a personal vehicle is driven.
The costs of fuel and wear-and-tear on the vehicle are incorporated into the mileage rates.
Various rates apply for fuel reimbursement for vehicles driven for University travel, as shown below. Current rates are available in UC Business and Finance Bulletin G-28. These rates change frequently, so refer to this policy immediately before your trip for the latest figures.
