Per diem is a substitute for using an actual expense reimbursement method. Instead of paying employees back the exact amount they spent on a trip (actual expense), you provide the per diem rate. You can provide per diem in advance before the employee travels for business. Or, you can give per diem after.
Per diems cover the cost of lodging, meals and incidentals for each day of business travel. Each expense has a predetermined rate, based on the average costs associated with specific locations.
Usually expenses incurred for travel between the employee's residence and the employee's regular workplace (tax home) are personal commuting expenses, not business travel. If these expenses are paid or reimbursed by the employer, they are taxable compensation to the employee.
Per diem is an allowance paid to your employees for lodging, meals, and incidental expenses incurred when travelling. This allowance is in lieu of paying their actual travel expenses.

On a business trip, you can deduct 100% of the cost of travel to your destination, whether that's a plane, train, or bus ticket. If you rent a car to get there, and to get around, that cost is deductible, too.
A per diem is money that you get to spend on food and other incidentals (including tips and phone calls). If you are away on travel for more than 12 hours and more than 50 miles from home, then you are eligible for 3/4 per diem. If you are away less than 12 hours, you do not get per diem.
The Internal Revenue Service requires travel reimbursements that are not submitted within 60 days of the completion of travel to be reported as taxable income. The 60 day clock begins the day travel is completed and the clock stops when the travel voucher is received in the Comptroller's Office.
Beginning January 1, 2021, the standard mileage reimbursement rate has been set at . 56 cents per mile, according to the Internal Revenue Service.
