Contact details: Payments Section

Members of staff placing orders with suppliers must not undertake to make payments in advance of delivery of goods or performance of services except in very special circumstances, e.g. where this means of securing a substantial discount from a reputable supplier.

Advances are given in exceptional circumstances where it would be unreasonable to claim expenses in arrears.

Complete the Application for Advance form (Form 20A)  and send this to the Payments Section.

Within seven days of the end of the official visit/ field trip/ course you need to complete and send in together:

• The Accounting for Advance (Form 20B) form
• The Staff - Claim for Reimbursement of Expenses form and the expense receipts and send these to the Payments Section. (Find out more about claiming expenses here.)
