Data sourced from public U.S. Government rate tables. Not affiliated with the U.S. Government or GSA.

What is the GSA Vehicle Rates API?

GSA Fleet leases vehicles to federal agencies on a full-service basis: each vehicle type — identified by its Standard Item Number (SIN) — has a monthly lease rate plus a rate per mile, with maintenance and fuel expenses included in that pricing. GSA publishes these rates once per fiscal year as Excel rate bulletins, in separate US and Europe schedules, with a 10% surcharge on standard rates for vehicles domiciled OCONUS outside Europe. Allowances API turns those spreadsheets into a simple JSON endpoint, so your application can look up the leasing rates for any vehicle type and fiscal year.

Every vehicle type (SIN)

Sedans, SUVs, vans, trucks, buses, ambulances, EVs and more — every SIN priced in the GSA Fleet rate bulletins.

Monthly + mileage rates

Both components of the full-service lease, as clean JSON numbers instead of spreadsheet cells.

US & Europe schedules

Query the standard (US) or Europe rate schedule with the same request shape.

Historical fiscal years

Rate bulletins back to fiscal year 2022, selectable with a simple year parameter.

No official GSA vehicle rates API

Why use an API for GSA Fleet vehicle rates?

GSA publishes its Fleet leasing rates as downloadable Excel bulletins — one per fiscal year and schedule, each with hundreds of vehicle types. Budgeting and fleet-management systems that copy figures out of those spreadsheets go stale every October when the new bulletin lands. Allowances API monitors the official publication, keeps every bulletin since fiscal year 2022, and answers the question your code actually asks: what are the monthly and per-mile rates for this vehicle type in this fiscal year?

Fleet & budgeting systems

Project annual vehicle costs from the official monthly and mileage rates instead of hand-maintained spreadsheets.

Government contractors

Price vehicle costs in proposals with current and historical GSA Fleet rates, backed by auditable source links.

Agency finance teams

Reconcile GSA Fleet bills and feed lease costs into ERP tools automatically each fiscal year.

GSA Vehicle Rates API FAQ

Answers to common developer and compliance questions.

Is there a GSA vehicle rates API?

GSA publishes its Fleet vehicle leasing rates as fiscal-year rate bulletins in Excel format, not as an API. Allowances API republishes those bulletins as a normalized JSON API, queryable by Standard Item Number (SIN), fiscal year, and rate schedule.

What do GSA Fleet vehicle leasing rates include?

GSA Fleet leases are full-service: each vehicle type has a monthly lease rate and a rate per mile, and that pricing includes maintenance and fuel expenses. Optional equipment is charged separately by GSA, per its official vehicle rates page.

What is a SIN (Standard Item Number)?

A Standard Item Number is GSA's identifier for a leased vehicle type — for example 10B is a midsize sedan and 99 is a 4x4 sport utility vehicle. The API takes the SIN as a case-insensitive path parameter and returns the vehicle description alongside the rates.

Can I get historical GSA Fleet rates?

Yes. The API covers every GSA Fleet rate bulletin from fiscal year 2022 onward. Pass year and the API returns the monthly and mileage rates that applied in that fiscal year — useful for reconciling past bills and validating historical cost models.

Are rates available for vehicles leased outside the United States?

The API serves both GSA Fleet schedules: standard for vehicles leased in the United States and europe for vehicles leased in Europe. Per GSA, vehicles domiciled OCONUS outside Europe are charged the standard rates plus a 10% surcharge.

Is Allowances API affiliated with GSA?

No. Allowances API is not affiliated with GSA or any U.S. Government agency. Data is sourced from the official GSA Fleet vehicle rates publication, and every response can include a verification link back to that source.
