Being on this list means the property has certified compliance with the Hotel and Motel Fire Safety Act of 1990: hard-wired smoke detectors in every guest room and an automatic sprinkler system in buildings of four or more stories. Travel and expense systems check the FEMA ID of the booked property against the list before reimbursing lodging. The list changes without notice, so confirm the FEMA ID on FEMA's site or through the API on the day of booking. The list says nothing about price: the nightly ceiling comes from the GSA per diem rate for Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
The request that returns this page's properties, 50 per page. The API also looks a property up by FEMA ID or ZIP code and searches the list by name.

The Hotel and Motel Fire Safety Act of 1990 requires federal employees on official travel to stay in lodging that meets its fire safety standards: hard-wired smoke detectors in every guest room and an automatic sprinkler system in buildings of four or more stories. FEMA's U.S. Fire Administration keeps the national list of properties that have certified compliance; each one has a FEMA ID. 43 properties in Tuscaloosa, Alabama are on the list as of October 27, 2026.
No. The FEMA list only confirms fire safety compliance; it says nothing about price. The nightly lodging ceiling for Tuscaloosa, Alabama is set separately by the GSA per diem rate. A reimbursable stay needs both: a property on this list and a room rate within the applicable lodging per diem.
FEMA publishes the current list only, without an effective date. Allowances API downloads it every day and this page shows the snapshot of October 27, 2026. Properties can be added or removed at any time, so confirm a property by its FEMA ID on the FEMA site before booking.
Allowances API is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any U.S. Government agency. The list is re-published as downloaded from FEMA; properties are grouped by city as spelled in the source.
