provide for reimbursement of Federal employees' subsistence expenses 
while on official travel.

after October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For clarification of content, contact 
Mr. Alexander Kurien, Deputy Associate Administrator, Office of 
Government-wide Policy, at 202-495-9628 or by email at

26-01.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CONUS per diem reimbursement rates 
prescribed in Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) Bulletin 26-01 may be 
found at https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem. 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, agencies can request that GSA review that 
location per 41 CFR 301-11.26. Additional information on the special 
review process is available at https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem under the 
``FAQs'' tab. Further, the FTR allows for actual expense reimbursement 
as provided in Sec. Sec.  301-11.300 through 301-11.306.
    For FY 2026, no new non-standard area (NSA) locations are added. 
The maximum lodging allowance rates in existing per diem localities 
remain at FY 2025 levels, and the standard lodging rate also remains 
unchanged at $110.

[[Page 40366]]

The M&IE reimbursement rate tiers for FY 2026 are unchanged at $68-$92, 
and the standard M&IE rate is unchanged at $68.
    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.

Associate Administrator, Office of Government-wide Policy.
