Due to recent changes to the Department of Defense's Joint Travel Regulations, miscellaneous and incidental travel expenses will now be paid at the standard rate of $5, regardless of the location and the amount paid. This incidental rate is payable to a traveler without expense itemization or receipts. These expenses were previously separate miscellaneous, reimbursable expenses incurred by an eligible traveler, when authorized. Incidental rates for locations outside the U.S. vary and can be found on the Defense Travel Management Office website www.defensetravel.dod.mil/site/perdiemCalc.cfm. For more on travel and per diem rates, visit the Military.com Per Diem page.
