Per Diem Allowance Calculator

Set fair, defensible hardship pay for every international assignment

Set fair, consistent daily allowances for your business travelers and short-term assignees in minutes, using data you can trust. You get defensible per diem recommendations for nearly 400 locations, so you can budget with confidence instead of chasing expense reports.

What you get

You get one reliable way to work out what daily life costs at almost any assignment location — and turn that cost into a single, fixed daily allowance you can apply the same way for everyone. It's built for business travelers and expatriates on short-term assignments of 3 to 12 months, so everyone in the same host location receives the same allowance, no matter their salary level or home country.

How it can help

Data you can count on where every recommendation rests on Marsh’s global pricing research, so when someone asks how a figure was reached, you have an answer:

• Accurate. Recommendations for nearly 400 locations, drawn from years of our pricing surveys.
• Transparent. You can break any recommendation down to see exactly what makes up the number.
• Up to date. Pricing is refreshed at least twice a year — and more often where prices move quickly.
• Consistent. The same trusted methodology applies everywhere, so your allowances hold up to scrutiny.
