What documents need to be submitted to obtain insurance and to whom?

A copy of your approved Travel Authorization: The travel authorization MUST reflect all required approving signatures. Obtain the signatures of the Department Chair/Director (or Immediate Supervisor), the College Dean (or Unit Vice Chancellor), and the Vice Provost for Resource Management in the Office of Academic Affairs. The Travel Authorization must include a fund/account number or indicate "for insurance purposes only." You can send your travel authorization by intercampus mail or deliver it in person to International Business Travel Insurance, OIP, Suite 321, PSU, preferably 2 weeks prior to the start of travel.
o Note: If receiving any funding from the Office of International Programs (OIP), the Travel Authorization must be sent to OIP for additional funding information. Failure to do so before travel may negate funding approval.

A copy of your current passport: You can bring the physical copy to OIP or you can submit your passport through liquid files. Please visit fileshare.appstate.edu and upload and share with ibtinsurance@appstate.edu. 

A completed online International Travel Insurance Form: http://international.appstate.edu/travel. If dependent premiums are due, they must be paid prior to processing. Checks should be made payable to Appalachian State University and delivered to OIP, PSU Suite 321.
