How to verify a property

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 Cornelius, North Carolina.

Cornelius FEMA lodging FAQ

What is the FEMA Hotel and Motel National Master List?

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. 6 properties in Cornelius, North Carolina are on the list as of October 27, 2026.

Does a FEMA-listed hotel in Cornelius automatically fall within the per diem rate?

No. The FEMA list only confirms fire safety compliance; it says nothing about price. The nightly lodging ceiling for Cornelius, North Carolina 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.

How current is this list?

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.
