Using a airline receipt for an expense claim

The threshold is a number, not a judgement call. IRS Publication 463 (opens in a new tab) requires documentary evidence — a receipt — for any lodging expense and for any other expense of $75 or more. Below $75, and for non-lodging costs, a written record may be accepted instead, though most employers set a stricter bar than the IRS does.

The same publication sets out what that evidence has to show: the amount, the date, the place, and the nature of the expense. A airline receipt that records a total but not what was bought fails the last of those, which is why itemisation matters more on an expense claim than it does at the till. Check your employer's own policy as well — it binds you whether or not the IRS threshold does.

Airline receipt FAQ

Can I add baggage and seat fees?

Yes — add checked-bag, seat-selection and booking fees as separate line items along with the base fare and taxes.

Can I set a different currency?

Yes, the builder supports 10 currencies and a custom tax label for international fares.
