Accommodation and travel expenses

a) We will clarify with you in advance whether hotel accommodation is required. In this case, the booking will be made directly by the Faculty of Social Sciences. If accommodation is required, we will cover the costs in advance.

b) The University of Mannheim is bound by the provisions of the Baden-Württemberg State Travel Expenses Act (LRKG BW) when reimbursing travel expenses. We would like to present these provisions to you in a transparent manner so that there are no queries or reductions afterwards. Please note the following points in particular:

• Train travel is generally reimbursed in 2nd class.
• Please refrain from travelling by air if possible. We kindly ask you to use the train or other land-based means of transport for your arrival and departure. Flight costs will only be reimbursed for economy class. Flights within Germany and to neighbouring countries are only reimbursable in justified exceptional cases (e.g. in the case of urgent, immediately time-bound official obligations before or after the trip).
• Per diems are not granted; unfortunately, additional meal expenses cannot be reimbursed.
• Seat reservations (train/flight) and airport transfer costs are not reimbursable.
• Costs for private fellow travellers cannot be covered.

In the unlikely event of changes or short-term impediments, please contact us as early as possible so that we can work together to find a suitable solution.
