SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CONUS per diem reimbursement rates
prescribed in Bulletin 25-01 may be
[[Page 67094]]
found at <a href="https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem">https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem</a>. 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. More information on rate setting can be found on
GSA's ``Factors Influencing Lodging Rates'' tab at <a href="https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem">https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem</a>. Additional information on the special review process can also
be found at this website under the ``FAQs'' tab. Further, the Federal
Travel Regulation (FTR) allows for actual expense reimbursement as
provided in Sec. Sec. 301-11.300 through 301-11.306.
For FY 2025, no new non-standard area (NSA) locations are added.
Maximum lodging allowance rates in some existing per diem localities
are changing and the standard CONUS lodging rate is increasing from
$107 to $110. The M&IE reimbursement rate tiers are also revised for FY
2025; they were last revised in FY 2022. The M&IE NSA tiers are
increasing from $59-$79 to $68-$92, and the standard M&IE rate is
increasing from $59 to $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.

Acting Associate Administrator, Office of Government-wide Policy.
