Per Diem
Meal Allowances are based upon the federal meal and incidental (Per Diem) rates that vary by city location. These rates include incidental expenses (e.g. service tips,
housekeeping, baggage carriers, porters, etc). NO RECEIPTS are needed unless you are reimbursing actual meal expenses or a business meal. Business meals
require an itemized paid receipt with the list of attendees and the business purpose of the meal.
Travelers may be paid at 100% of the Per Diem allowance for the applicable city location or may be reimbursed for less than the Per Diem allowance with a general
description of what was purchased (meal breakdown below) which is considered partial or reduced per diem. Note that the per diem amount is based on daily limits
not meal limits. So if a meal was covered by another source you will subtract 25% of the city per diem for a breakfast that was covered; 25% of the city per diem for a
lunch that was covered; and 50% of the city per diem for a dinner that was covered. The amount remaining is what the traveler is eligible for.
Full meal allowances while on travel status will not be paid if a meal is served on the plane, included in a conference registration fee, built into the hotel room rate, or
replaced by a legitimate business meal. The allowance must be adjusted by deducting the appropriate meal percentage listed below.
