Washington, DC – August
2023 / Newsmaker Alert: The
U.S. General Services Administration
(GSA) has released the fiscal year 2024 continental United States (CONUS)
per diem
reimbursement rates, effective October 1, 2023, through September 30,
2024. For FY 2024, the maximum lodging allowance rates in some existing
per diem localities will increase, and the standard CONUS lodging rate
will increase from $98 to $107, resulting in 302 locations receiving a
maximum lodging allowance higher than the standard rate. The meals and
incidental expenses per diem tiers for FY 2024 are unchanged at $59-$79,
with the standard M&IE rate unchanged at $59.
GSA
bases the maximum lodging allowances on historical average daily rate (ADR)
data, less five percent. However, the COVID-19 pandemic led to unprecedented
declines in ADR, followed by a volatile hotel industry recovery. The ADR
data available to establish FY 2024 rates was from before the COVID-19
Public Health Emergency expired on May 11, 2023. (GSA used data from the
trailing April through March.) Similar to the approach for FY 2023, GSA
made upward adjustments to ensure that maximum lodging allowances for federal
travelers are sufficient in FY 2024.
