Rate Increases for Meals - Travel and Meetings/Entertainment
New rates apply to the maximum allowable per person amounts for meals and incidental expenses (M&IE) for travel, and for meals and light refreshments for entertainment and business meetings that occur on or after July 1, 2022.
TRAVEL The daily M&IE cap for travel within the continental United States for over 24 hours but less than 30 days has been increased to $79. This amount is not a per diem, but rather a limitation on actual expenses incurred that will be reimbursed.
