International Travel Insurance
The CSU strongly encourages all travelers to read these before planning any international business trip.
Processing Time
Please allow at least 4 weeks to process an international travel request. This may take longer depending on your department's specific approval flow. It is recommended to submit your request as soon as trip dates are confirmed.
As a reminder, countries, as well as embargoed and sanctioned countries, are off limits for ALL CSUSM funded travel. Even if your staff/faculty are traveling for personal reasons, but bringing their work laptop or phone, they still must follow precautions to avoid data being stolen. For more information, please visit OGSR’s Export Control website.
Foreign Travel Insurance Program (FTIP)
The Foreign Travel Insurance Program (FTIP) is mandated for traveling faculty, staff, and students who are participating in University sponsored trips, regardless of the funding source.
Integrated Risk Management currently covers the foreign travel insurance premium costs for employees and students traveling on approved University business. With the exception of student participation in an approved Study Abroad Program, foreign travel insurance shall not be procured from another source.
