Per Diem Allowance Calculator

Set Fair, Data-Driven Travel Per Diems

Defensible daily allowances for business travel, anywhere in the world.

Calculate per diem allowances for any destination city, with transparent breakdowns for meals, incidentals, and local transport across Economy, Standard, and Executive travel tiers.

Three Travel Tiers

Economy, Standard, and Executive tiers help align allowances with employee seniority and corporate travel policies.

Transparent Breakdown

Every figure is traceable to Numbeo price items, with the exact formula shown for meals, incidentals and local transport.

Provided Meals Handling

Automatically adjust allowances when breakfast, lunch, or dinner is already provided by a hotel, conference, or host.

Any Report Currency

Results are converted to the currency you choose, ready for expense policies.

Global City Coverage

Generate allowances for thousands of destinations worldwide using continuously updated local price data. Where city-level data is limited, country-level estimates are applied automatically.

Always Current Prices

Unlike static annual surveys, Numbeo data is updated continuously to reflect changing local prices and inflation.

What the per diem covers

The allowance covers a traveler's daily on-the-ground spending at the destination: meals, incidentals (laundry, tips, sundries, mobile data) and local transport.

It deliberately excludes transport to the destination (flights, long-distance rail) and lodging / accommodation. Those are typically booked directly or reimbursed against receipts, and most companies maintain a separate travel and lodging policy for them. Separating these expenses keeps daily allowances simpler, more predictable, and easier to standardize across destinations.
