Public transport
Your choice of transport and travel class must be based on what is overall the most time-efficient and cost-effective solution for DTU.
Documentation of transport expenses
When submitting your expense report in DTU Fusion, you must always attach documentation for your transport expenses.
Train and bus tickets
- Attach the ticket as documentation, including electronic tickets.
- DSB/DOT app: Remember to include screenshots of both the front and back of the ticket.
- Mobile multi-trip tickets: Attach both the receipt for purchasing the ticket package and the receipts for the trips used.
Rejsekort
- You may use Rejsekort Personligt or Flex for business travel. Documentation is provided via a statement from your Rejsekort account.
- For anonymous Rejsekort cards, the journey may be documented with a photo of the display screen at the station check-in/check-out point.
- DTU does not cover fees for missed check-out, fines or top-ups – only actual travel usage.
Rejsekort Erhverv
It is also possible to use Rejsekort Erhverv, which can be linked to your department’s EAN number. Expenses are invoiced collectively to the department once a month.
Please note that this solution requires internal administration, as the department must be able to document who used the card and for what purpose. Rejsekort Erhverv is therefore not recommended for project-related travel and may only be used for DTU-related purposes.
If your department wishes to use Rejsekort Erhverv, the department must enter into a framework agreement directly with Rejsekort A/S.
CWT and alternative booking options
- You may book train tickets through DTU’s travel agency, CWT (Carlson Wagonlit Travel).
- If you choose this option, remember to register the correct address in CWT’s booking system to ensure that the tickets are delivered correctly.
- There is no requirement to book train travel through CWT – you may also use services such as Rejseplanen to purchase electronic tickets.
DTU does not reimburse fines
Costs related to fines and fees - for example penalty fares on buses and trains - are considered private expenses and will not be reimbursed by DTU. This also applies if the fine is incurred during work-related travel.
