copy of receipt

Sometimes when you fill out a reimbursement form, they want you to 'please attach copy of receipt'. Is 'copy of receipt' the photocopy of the receipt, or the original receipt?

Thanks.

Hi,

We've had a number of questions about 'a reimbursement form'. I'd like to point out that, at least in my business experience, a more common term is some variant of expense form, claim for expenses, expense claim.

Best wishes, Clive

Barb and Clive,

Thanks loads.

Clive, now that your commented on it, I do feel 'reimbursement form' is a little bit strange; 'claim for expense' or maybe 'reimbursement request' is probably better.

We actually do use "reimbursement form" in the U.S. where I live/work. It's not unnatural at all.

I concur - that's exactly what it's called in all the places I've worked.

Thanks for clearing that up.
