New Federal Per Diem Rates Released Today!
August 12, 2016
Dear WH&LA Lodging Member:
Today the federal General Services Administration (GSA) released their new Federal Per Diem Rates for FY2017, which runs from October 1, 2016 - September 30, 2017.
The following are the highlights relating to Wisconsin:
- The WH&LA has updated our Wisconsin Federal Per Diem Rates Fact Sheet, which you may copy for your front desk and other appropriate staff. Please note this is for your internal purposes as a WH&LA member service and is not intended for others.
- The counties that have special rates are listed first, with the Continental U.S. (CONUS) rate listed for all other parts of the state.
- The CONUS rate was increased from $89 to $91 starting October 1st.
- The Meals & Incidentals per diem rates stayed the same across the board
- Madison/Dane County and Sheboygan/Sheboygan County lost their seasonal rate changes meaning there is one rate all year, however their primary rates increased (from $105 to $115 for Madison, and from $89 to $94 for Sheboygan).
- The only decline was in Madison for the months of Oct. 2016 and Sept. 2017, where the seasonal rate of $127 was eliminated, however for the other months, they tied with Wisconsin Dells for the biggest increase of over 9%.
- No new "non-standard areas" (NSA's) were created
