Moving: MALT
Service members receive a monetary allowance in lieu of transportation (MALT) when they drive to a new assignment. The amount is calculated using official mileage between the old and new duty stations.
MALT also is paid to service members going overseas if they drive from their stateside location to the port of embarkation for a transcontinental plane or ship and from the port of debarkation to the new duty station.
MALT for members on permanent change-of-station travel is 15 cents per mile if traveling alone; 17 cents with one family member; 19 cents with two; and 20 cents with three or more.
Family members authorized to travel by car without the service member also receive MALT at the same rate. Family members traveling in a second vehicle during a PCS also are eligible for payment. No special authorization is required.
A third vehicle may be authorized under certain conditions.
Mileage information is maintained by each service and is available through local transportation offices. The actual distance driven might not equal the official distance.
