When there is no advance payment, it is possible to request reimbursement of expenses as part of a travel request (O.S.) - when the expenses are related to a travel that includes airfare, accommodation, among other services - or to request reimbursement of expenses independently, for example when carrying out an external visit in your municipality of origin that did not require the creation of a travel request.
