Self-Employed Startups:
Please notify the Department of Fellowships and Prizes (joanna.koelbel(at)oeaw.ac.at) of the tentative travel expenses prior to any travel (Reisekostenantrag form). Any eventual lodgings expenses will be reimbursed on the basis of lodgings rates (cf. The Federal State’s Legal Information System, RIS (Rechtsinformationssystem des Bundes, RIS); the 2b lodgings rate applies). The lodging rate can also be charged if accommodation does not cost anything. The lodging rate for Austria amounts to 15 Euro per night. Hotel or AirBnB invoices will not be refunded.
Per diems (Tagessätze) are not permitted.
For travel by private car, costs equivalent to a second-class rail ticket are accepted. Taxi bills will only be accepted if justified (e.g. heavy luggage).
Upon completion of travel, a travel expenses billing (Reisekostenabrechnung form) must be sent with original receipts (boarding passes, bills, account printouts) by post. The expenses will subsequently be reimbursed.
Employees:
Please notify the Department for Fellowships and Prizes (joanna.koelbel(at)oeaw.ac.at) of the tentative expenses prior to any travel.
The amount you indicate will then be transferred to your project account.
The travel expenses must be billed with the institution where you are employed, according to the guidelines applicable there. In the general final billing that must be sent to the Department for Fellowships and Prizes, the travel expenses used up must be listed.
