The federal ceiling on tax-free lodging reimbursement in Newark is $113 per night, plus up to $68 a day for meals (GSA, FY2027). GSA names roughly 300 higher-cost destinations individually; Newark is not one, so the national standard rate applies. That is a maximum, not what agencies pay. Look up the exact rate for any ZIP code.
