Visiting US for business purpose, can trip expenses be reimbursed on US bank account?

Yes this is doable if your employer agrees with it, for many years I was employed in China but travelled extensively to the US and as such as had many business expenses in the US

Since I would be there for extended periods my employer made an agreement with our client that they would reimburse my expenses locally in the US directly to me

In the beginning this was done by the client issuing me a check that I went to the bank to cash but later I opened a US bank account and they reimbursed me directly into the account on the last day of every month

Because expense reimburs*m*nts are not taxable there are no laws or regulations that hinders this

Having said this, most companies like to keep control of their expenses through policies etc which is harder to enforce in such a setup so you might have resistance from your employer but that’s purely based on business policy and not accounting or any other challenges
