In addition, an original travel reimbursement agreement in duplicate should be attached.

The document must be submitted at least 10 days before departure. Submission of an application in violation of the deadline will result in the case being left unprocessed.

The application for travel abroad shall be completed by the person going on a foreign business trip.

The application should be printed on both sides.
