SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The CONUS per diem reimbursement rates prescribed in Bulletin 23-01 
may be found at https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem. GSA bases the maximum 
lodging allowance rates on average daily rate, a widely accepted 
lodging industry measure, less five percent. If a maximum lodging 
allowance rate and/or a meals and incidental expenses (M&IE) per diem 
reimbursement rate is insufficient to meet necessary expenses in any 
given CONUS location, Federal executive agencies can request that GSA 
review that location. Please review questions six and seven of GSA's 
per diem Frequently Asked Questions page at https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem 
for more information on the special review process. In addition, the 
Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) allows for actual expense reimbursement 
as provided in Sec. Sec.  301-11.300 through 301-11.306.
    For FY 2023, no new non-standard area locations were added. Maximum 
lodging allowance rates in some existing per diem localities will 
increase and the standard CONUS lodging rate will increase from $96 to 
$98. The M&IE per diem tiers for FY 2023 are unchanged at $59-$79, with 
the standard M&IE rate unchanged at $59.
    Other than the changes posted on the GSA website, notices published 
periodically in the Federal Register now constitute the only 
notification of revisions in CONUS per diem reimbursement rates to 
agencies.
