All travelers who travel to destinations outside the United States and the U.S. territories and possessions must complete the International Travel Export Control Form and receive approval from the Export Control Officer in the Office of Compliance and Ethics, if required, before leaving on the trip.  This requirement applies to all business travel outside the United States, regardless of the source of funds used to pay for the trip or whether the University pays for any of the trip expenses.  The International Travel Export Control Form is located at https://www.uh.edu/research/resources/dor-forms/export-control/. The form must be attached to the applicable Concur Travel Request.

If a foreign-flag air carrier is paid with Federal funds, the Fly America Act Waiver Checklist must be completed to document the exception to the Fly America Act.  The Waiver Checklist is located at UH Fly America Act waiver checklist. The Waiver Checklist must be uploaded as supporting documentation to the Concur Expense Report.

The Fly America Act of 1974 (49 U.S.C. 40118) requires that foreign air travel funded with Federal funds be performed on U.S. flag air carriers. Federal funds code numbers at the University of Houston are 5013, 5014, 5015, 5023, 5033, 5034, 5035, 5036, 5043, 5044, 5045, 5046, 5053, 5054, 5055, 5056.
