employees.
1. The office of management and budget shall seek to obtain sales tax exemptions for 
state employee travel lodging expense from all other states and the District of 
Columbia. If available from other states, the office of management and budget shall file 
exemption records, documents, or numbers for use by state agencies. Whenever any 
state agency, board, bureau, or institution makes out -of-state travel plans involving a 

lodging expense, the agency may contact the office of management and budget to 
determine if a sales tax exemption has been obtained from the destination state or 
states. If an exemption has been obtained, and if travel plans are sufficiently certain, 
the agency, board, bureau, or institution may obtain the required documentation from 
the office of management and budget and arrange with the out -of-state lodging 
provider to have the agency prepay the lodging expense or to have the lodging 
expense directly billed to the agency and obtain the benefit of the sales tax exemption.
2. If a state agency, board, bureau, or institution makes travel plans involving a lodging 
expense, the agency, board, bureau, or institution may arrange with the lodging 
provider or travel agency to have the lodging expense prepaid by the agency or billed 
directly to the agency.
