Dear Campus Partners,

The Chancellor’s Office has issued a memo lifting the previous travel restrictions effective June 1st, 2021.

Please note that as of April, Humboldt County has adopted state guidelines regarding travel:

• If you are fully vaccinated:
  --No quarantine is required for domestic travel
  --14-day quarantine is required for international travel
  

• If you are not fully vaccinated:
  --No quarantine is required for travel in California
  --14-day quarantine is required for other domestic and international travel.

Please review the following guidelines regarding the modification of travel restrictions:

• Faculty and Staff members traveling using state-side, Associated Students, or Humboldt State University Foundation funds (with or without students), must use Concur for their travel authorization and expense report along with the state travel card.

• Due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, travel cards were put on hold.  To open a card, the traveler’s administrator can email a request to the HSU Travel email, travel@humboldt.edu.

• For Concur related questions, please email Kearney Vander Sal at krv5@humboldt.edu, and she will be able to assist you.

• Faculty and staff members traveling using Sponsored Programs grant or trust funds will no longer require preauthorization to travel (unless your travel is International). Please follow the pre-COVID guidelines of turning in all forms and backup receipts when you return from your trip. *Note– some research activities/group field work may still require “Risk Mitigation Plans” to be submitted through October. Please contact your Grant Analyst to confirm.

• For student only travel, please continue to use the paper travel claim and paper travel authorization form.

• For general travel questions, please email travel@humboldt.edu.

Visit the Humboldt State Travel website for Concur Guides, links to Travel Card applications, and more.
