Understanding the 2023 GSA POV Mileage Reimbursement Rates

The General Services Administration (GSA) establishes the mileage reimbursement rates for federal employees who use privately owned vehicles (POVs) for official government business. These rates are designed to cover the fixed and variable costs of operating a vehicle, including fuel, insurance, maintenance, and depreciation.

The rates below were effective from January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023. It is crucial to use the correct rate corresponding to the year the travel took place.

Official 2023 Reimbursement Rates Breakdown

The reimbursement amount depends heavily on the type of vehicle used and whether a government-furnished vehicle was available for the trip. The calculator above uses these official 2023 figures:

  • Standard Automobile Rate ($0.655/mile): This rate applies when a privately owned automobile is used for official travel, and no government-owned vehicle is available. This was an increase from the mid-2022 rate.
  • Alternate Automobile Rate ($0.22/mile): This lower rate applies if a government vehicle is available, but the employee chooses to use their own privately owned vehicle instead.
  • Motorcycle Rate ($0.635/mile): The standard reimbursement rate for using a privately owned motorcycle for official business.
  • Airplane Rate ($1.74/mile): The rate for using a privately owned airplane, which is significantly higher due to increased operational costs.
