ND in-state lodging rate increases 10/01/2019

As of October 1, 2019, the maximum reimbursement rate for in-state lodging will increase from $84.60+tax to $86.40+tax, based on 90% of the GSA (US General Services Administration) rate.

Per state law, ND state employees may be reimbursed a maximum of ninety percent of the GSA rate for lodging in North Dakota plus applicable state and local taxes. As of October 1, 2019, the GSA rate for lodging in ND will be $96, therefore the maximum amount that can be claimed is $86.40 plus applicable taxes ($96 x 90% = $86.40). The GSA will update their rates periodically during the biennium and the allowable lodging reimbursement will also change at that time.
