travel authorization

Travel authorization is official permission to make a trip, typically required by employers, governments, or institutions before someone can travel on their behalf or enter their territory.

In workplace contexts, it usually involves approval of expenses and itinerary before business travel.

For international travel, it often refers to electronic systems that screen visitors before departure, such as the U.S.

ESTA or European ETIAS.

My travel authorization was denied because the conference dates conflicted with the project deadline.
