## International Travel Approval Request

Create an international Travel Approval Request (TAR) for each individual. (A TAR is required if grant funds are supporting any cost associated with the travel, e.g., per diem, air fare, ground transportation.)
Click the "Add a Travel Approval Request" button to create a TAR. IRIS will notify your program officer by email when the TAR is submitted. Once the TAR is approved or disapproved, IRIS will send you an email with additional information from your program officer. Approved TARs can be updated and resubmitted to US/ED for review. TARs must comply with the Fly America Act or meet one of its exceptions . The "Fly America Act" generally provides that foreign air travel funded by Federal government money may only be conducted on U.S. air carriers. There are limited circumstances under which use of a foreign-flag carrier is permissible. For example, flying on transportation provided under a bilateral or multilateral air transportation agreement, such as the Open Skies Agreement, is an allowable exception. If the traveler is flying under an exception, please site the exception in the "comments" section of the TAR.

The TAR must be submitted to US/ED at least 30 days prior to the traveler's departure.
