What document must travelers submit after completing their travel?

After completing travel, travelers are required to submit a travel voucher or claim for reimbursement. This document is essential because it formally requests compensation for travel expenses incurred during the trip. The travel voucher includes details about the travel, such as dates, destinations, and the specific expenses being claimed. This is part of the accountability process within the Defense Travel System, ensuring that all costs are properly documented and approved for reimbursement according to military travel regulations.

The travel voucher serves as the primary means of reconciling the traveler's out-of-pocket expenses with the funds provided for the trip, thus ensuring accurate financial management within the system. Additionally, the submission of this document initiates the review and approval process that allows for the reimbursement to be issued in a timely manner.
