Költségigénylés

Költségigénylés is a Hungarian term that translates to "expense claim" or "reimbursement request" in English. It refers to the process by which an individual seeks to recover money they have spent on behalf of an organization, employer, or other entity. This typically occurs when an employee makes an out-of-pocket purchase for business-related expenses, such as travel, supplies, or client entertainment, and needs to be reimbursed by their company.

The költségigénylés process usually involves submitting a formal document, often a dedicated form, detailing the expenses incurred. This document typically requires the claimant to list each item of expenditure, the date it occurred, the purpose of the expense, and the amount spent. Crucially, supporting documentation, such as receipts, invoices, or other proof of purchase, must be attached to the claim. Without proper documentation, the expense claim may be rejected.

Companies establish specific policies and procedures for költségigénylés to ensure accurate financial record-keeping and to prevent fraudulent claims. These policies often outline eligible expenses, spending limits, submission deadlines, and the approval workflow. Once submitted, the költségigénylés is reviewed by a designated person or department, typically a manager or the finance department, who verifies the legitimacy and accuracy of the request before authorizing reimbursement. The reimbursement itself is usually issued through payroll or a separate payment process.
