For US Government overseas travelers on Uncle Sam's dime, you'll have to go to State's site:
STATE DEPT OVERSEAS RATES
One of the things on state's site that I noted is that there is no lodging reimbursement for Baghdad or Kabul!
$169 a day to eat in Tokyo! It's one of the perks of being a Federal employee overseas. When a meeting takes you to Tokyo....just eat like the locals do at yakitori stands or curry houses and you can earn some serious extra income!
