Business Travel & Accommodation Request Form

A business travel request template for agencies — what’s needed, where and when, and which client budget or approver the trip sits against.

Description

When someone needs to travel for a client meeting, shoot or event, the details matter — dates, destinations, who’s approving the spend. This business travel and accommodation request template captures all of it in one place so bookings get made quickly and nothing lands on the wrong budget.

The form asks what’s needed (flights, trains, hotels, car hire, transfers), where and when the person is traveling, how many people are going, and any preferences or access requirements. It also ties the trip to a client or job code and flags whether it sits within the project’s travel budget — or who needs to sign it off if not.

Ideal for agencies, production teams and any business that books travel for staff. Use it to keep travel requests consistent, control costs against the right job, and give whoever books the trip everything they need in one submission. Customize the options, add your branding, and embed it or share a link in minutes.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Business Travel & Accommodation Request Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What is a business travel request form?

A business travel request form collects everything needed to book and approve work travel — dates, destinations, what’s required (flights, hotels, transfers), traveler numbers and which budget it comes from — in a single submission.

What should a travel and accommodation request form include?

The reason for travel, origin and destination, dates, number of travelers, and what’s needed — flights, rail, hotel or car hire — plus any preferences or access needs and the budget or approver it should be charged to. Capturing it all in one submission means whoever books the trip isn’t chasing missing details.

Why link a travel request to a client or job code?

So the cost is tracked against the right project and can be recharged to a client where relevant, rather than absorbed. This form captures the job code and whether the trip is within the project’s travel budget.

Who approves business travel requests?

Typically a line manager, account lead or finance, depending on the cost and whether it’s client-billable. The form asks whether the trip sits within the project’s travel budget and, if not, who’s approving the spend — so the right person signs off before anything is booked.

Can staff note travel preferences or accessibility needs?

Yes — there’s a free-text field for preferences and requirements like travel times, seating, dietary and accessibility needs, so whoever books the trip has the full picture up front. Getting this in at request stage avoids awkward last-minute changes once flights or hotels are already booked.

Is this travel request template free to use?

Yes, it’s free. Adjust the travel options and approval routing to match your process, restyle it, and embed it on your intranet or share a link in minutes. No coding needed — just a free Fun Forms account to collect responses.
