Employee Expense Reimbursements: Complete FAQ Guide

SAP Concur published an FAQ guide on employee expense reimbursements, covering definitions, reimbursable expenses, receipt requirements, payment methods, timelines, tax treatment and alternatives. The guide states reimbursement amounts should exactly match expenses, employees must provide itemised receipts, reimbursements are not considered income for employees and are not taxable, and businesses can treat reimbursements as expenditures that may reduce tax liability. Alternatives include advances, per diems, corporate cards and purchasing cards.
