Using your personal car:

1. When using your personal car, you may claim mileage or gas (with receipts), but not both.
2. Rentals cars with gas cards are recommended by the travel office, rather than the use of a personal vehicle. Advance request for both the rental and the gas card is required.
3. Gas cards can not be used with personal cars, but with rentals from state contracted agencies only.

State contracted car rental agencies:

1. Make your reservation at one of the agency web sites below.
2. Important!
   Obtain direct bill numbers from tbruegg@astro.as.utexas.edu prior to making your reservation.

International car rental:

1. State of Texas car rental contracts are for the US only. When renting outside the US, use any vendor, and make sure that insurance coverage is purchased. Insurance is an approved reimbursement (or charge to departmental direct bill number), as international car rental agreements cover liability only.
