If your business trip lasts more than 28 days, it is considered a long-term assignment under the Danish Government's travel rules. Special rules therefore apply to travel allowances and travel administration. Here you can find out what you need to be aware of.
If your business trip lasts more than 28 days at the same location, special rules apply to travel allowances and expense reporting.
You remain entitled to reimbursement of eligible travel expenses, but some allowance rates change after day 28. This includes allowances for meals and incidental expenses, as well as certain accommodation-related allowances.
The reason is that longer stays at the same location are considered more permanent, and travellers are therefore expected to be able to arrange meals and accommodation more economically than during shorter business trips.
Read more about rates and allowances on the Business Travel and Transport page.
You remain covered by DTU's business travel insurance throughout your stay.
