Employees of University of Bergen may use DFØ, the way you usually do, only remember to choose ‘Override accounts’, to  charge NORBIS rather than your own group, and fill in 12120000 for ‘Kostnadssted’ and 101195101 for ‘Prosjekt’.

Employees from other institutions must gain access to PayMe/BetalMeg through UiB. If you don’t have access already, please fill in this form so we can apply for access for you. We do not provide a travel advance to employees from other institutions than UiB and we apologise for the inconvenience.
