Expense Claim Forms

The Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers benefits considerably from the substantial time and expense freely absorbed by members and their employers in support of the Institution's charitable objectives.

Many members consider it an honour to serve CIBSE and cushioning expenses is a cost-effective means for the industry to support the work of the Institution.

However, the Institution promotes diversity and inclusivity in its volunteering structures, and it is not always possible that employers cover expenses incurred. In these circumstances, the Institution will reimburse reasonable expense claims from CIBSE members.

Please complete our online form to submit your expense claim. Claims must be made within 3 months of the expense being incurred. You will receive an email confirmation once your form has been submitted. Your Form will then be reviewed by the relevant manager, approved and payment issued by the CIBSE Finance Team.

Travel and Subsistence Claims
Members are requested to book travel well in advance and travel costs should not exceed the cost of a normal 2nd class rail fare. If any individual trip or claim is likely to exceed £250, members should complete a pre-approval form in advance of the travel date. This is to ensure that there are sufficient funds to meet this level of expense.

Before submitting online you will need to have receipts for all major components of expenditure as you will be required to upload these.

Interview, Workshop and Phone Surgery Claims
Before submitting online you will need to have the date of interview/workshop and (if applicable) the names of the candidates interviewed. Please ensure you complete all sections of the form to ensure your claim is correct.
