Per diem rates in Arizona

When traveling to an Arizona city without a designated per diem rate, you’ll default to the federal rates: $110 for lodging and $68 daily for meals and incidentals. These figures are established by the General Services Administration (GSA) and are applicable from October 2025 to September 2026.

For cities with specific rates, the GSA sets fixed per diem amounts to reflect local cost differences, such as Phoenix. Here’s a breakdown of per diem rates for various Arizona cities:
