Foreign Subsistence

Meals & Incidental Expense rates for localities in non-foreign areas (prescribed in Civilian Personnel Per Diem Bulletins published periodically in the Federal Register by the Secretary of Defense) and for localities in foreign area (established by the Secretary of State in Section 925, a per diem supplement to the Standardized Regulations (Government Civilians, Foreign Areas )) shall be allocated as shown in this table [S 301-7.12(a)(2)(ii)] when making deductions from non-foreign or foreign area per diem rates.

Example: A University employee is traveling in Paris, France. Federal Per Diem for Paris, France is $174 for lodging and $92 for Meals and Incidental Expenses making the total Federal Per Diem a maximum of $266. The registration indicated that during the trip all meals would be provided. When the employee files the Form 25 for reimbursement only the incidental amount (M & IE) of $18 ($92 less $14-breakfast, $23-lunch, $37-dinner) plus $174 for lodging would be claimed as lodging and subsistence.
