Effective January 24, 2016, unless otherwise noted, allowances and/or post differential rates are revised as shown. These changes are issued under TL:SR-882.
Please inform local offices of all U.S. government agencies at the posts listed in this cable.
Important: Read this entire message, as posts may be listed more than once. Changes are listed by allowance or differential rather than by post.
Taiwan has been included, when applicable, under arrangement with the American Institute in Taiwan.
The Post (Hardship) Differential change for Oman is based on a Post (Hardship) Differential Questionnaire submitted by Muscat. The Danger Pay and Post (Hardship) Differential changes for Burundi are based on an Administrative determination by the Assistant Secretary for Administration. The Administrative determination will expire in 180 days (July 2016).
The Living Quarters Allowance (LQA) changes are based on currency exchange rate information reported to the Office of Allowances as of the first Thursday of Pay Period 1 (January 14, 2016).
The Post Allowance (COLA) change for Japan is based on a survey submitted by Osaka-Kobe. All other COLAs are based on currency exchange rate information reported to the Office of Allowances as of the first Thursday of Pay Period 1 (January 14, 2016).
