Official Travel Order & Authority to Travel Guidelines

The Travel Order Generator helps public servants, administrative officers, and field personnel create standard Travel Orders (or Authority to Travel) required for official travel outside one's permanent station. Under Philippine civil service rules and Commission on Audit (COA) Circulars, no government official or employee may embark on official travel or claim per diems without a prior duly approved Travel Order.

This generator structures all mandatory administrative travel elements: Traveler Identification, Official Station, Destination, Travel Inclusive Dates, Purpose of Mission, Chargeable Fund Source (e.g., Local MOOE or Project Funds), and Authorized Approval Signatories.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Input Agency & Office Header: Enter your Agency Name, Division/Section, and Official Office Address.
  2. Specify Personnel Details: Enter the full name, official position title, salary grade (if applicable), and permanent official station of the traveler.
  3. Define Travel Period & Destination: Indicate the inclusive dates of official travel and specify the target venue, city, or province of destination.
  4. State the Official Purpose: Clearly describe the mission objective (e.g., To conduct field validation and stakeholder monitoring for CY 2026 farm-to-market road projects).
  5. Designate Appropriations / Fund Source: Specify the funding source from which transportation and per diem allowances will be drawn (e.g., Agency Regular MOOE Funds).
  6. Review and Export: Inspect the live preview, then click Copy Text or Print / PDF for immediate routing and signature.

Guidelines & Practical Notes

COA & EO 77 Compliance

Executive Order No. 77 prescribes the official rules and daily travel rates for Philippine government personnel. Ensure your travel order specifies travel dates and itinerary accurately before liquidation.

Fund Source Specification

Always verify with your budget unit whether travel expenses will be charged against General Administrative Support (GAS), Regional MOOE, or Special Project Funds.

Recommending vs. Approving Signatures

Routine local travel typically requires the recommendation of an immediate supervisor and the final approval of the Head of Agency or delegated regional official.

Attaching Supporting Documents

Print three (3) copies: one for the accounting unit (liquidation), one for the human resource/records unit, and one for the traveler's file.
