Meals / Per Diem

The per diem reimbursement rate differs depending on the event location and time of year. Check whether you're traveling to a high cost city/period at https://business.fhda.edu/policies-and-procedures/hh-travel-guidelines.html


Most cities are considered "low domestic per diem cities" and are reimbursed at the following rates:

  • Breakfast $14
  • Lunch $16
  • Dinner $29
  • Incidentals $5


There are some cities that are considered "high-cost cities." Their reimbursement rates are:

  • Breakfast $17
  • Lunch $18
  • Dinner $34
  • Incidentals $5


Travel and conference funds can only be used to pay per diem for days of conference attendance (i.e. not on travel-only days).


The district doesn't allow per-diem for meals that are included in the conference fees. Please ensure your documentation includes an agenda showing which meals are/not included in your registration.

 

Enter your total per diem dollar amount requesting.


Enter zero (0) if there are no per diem expenses.
