14 of them in Ramstein-Miesenbach itself, 6 minutes from the Ramstein Air Base main gate; the rest 10–28 minutes away in Landstuhl, Kaiserslautern and Weilerbach — every one a move-in-ready home, not a hotel room. Every card shows the real drive time. Tell us your dates, household and where you will work — we match you to the right one.
- Full kitchen, washer & dryer, Wi-Fi, parking
- Separate bedrooms, garden or balcony — sized for families
- Pet-friendly homes on request
- Priced inside your per-diem ceiling, in writing
Will Finance pay?
Will Finance Pay for Your TLA Ramstein Home? Yes — in Writing.
Temporary Lodging Allowance (TLA) is the daily allowance the DoD pays to offset lodging, meals and incidentals while you house-hunt after a PCS to Ramstein Air Base. It is paid for up to 60 days, reviewed in 10–15-day increments, with the housing office typically approving 30 days first. Once on-base lodging issues a Certificate of Non-Availability, Finance authorises it for off-base housing — and a furnished TLA Ramstein home for the whole family, priced inside your ceiling, fits.
Whoever you book with, there are three things to have in writing before confirming a private TLA home. We built our booking around them — so what you need to check is what we put on paper first.
Why families choose Prime TLA
Built around what Finance needs to see
Your nightly rate in writing — before you commit
Good to know
The TLA ceiling varies by rank and dependents and is recalculated periodically — so the nightly rate has to be confirmed against your ceiling, in writing, before you commit.
Your rate is calculated for your rank and dependent percentage so it sits inside the DoD per-diem ceiling, and it is on your written confirmation before you pay a cent — the invoice Finance sees matches it line for line.
Finance-ready paperwork, every cycle
Good to know
Finance needs itemised receipts in the service member’s name for every night, filed with the CNA — receipts are mandatory, and vague or incomplete ones delay the whole claim.
Every certification cycle you get a finance-ready itemised invoice — your name, the address, the dates, the nightly rate in EUR with the German VAT structure — and your Relocation Manager assembles the claim packet (invoice, occupancy proof, CNA) so Finance turns it around without questions.
A published minimum, clear exit terms
Good to know
TLA is reviewed in 10–15-day increments and stops when permanent housing is ready — so the exit terms of your booking matter as much as the rate.
One published minimum (14 nights off-peak, 30 in the May–August peak) and nothing hidden beyond it: extensions in the same unit, and documented orders changes are penalty-free under our military-aware cancellation policy.

Check availability for my datesBefore you book TLA Ramstein — the six questions everyone asks
Are Prime TLA properties TLA Ramstein-approved (TLA-compliant)?
Are Prime TLA properties TLA Ramstein-approved (TLA-compliant)?
Yes. Every Prime TLA Ramstein property is designed to be TLA-compliant for short-term reimbursement and OHA-compliant for the long-term stay that follows.
What “TLA-approved” means here:
- Daily rate sits inside the DoD lodging-component ceiling for the locality
- Finance-ready invoices with proper German VAT structure
- Occupancy proof and stay documentation handed over at check-in
- CNA workflow guidance from your Relocation Manager
Final reimbursement approval is always determined by your finance office based on your orders, rank, and dependent status — but our documentation is what KMC finance offices have approved across hundreds of prior PCS moves.
What is CNA and how does it affect my TLA Ramstein options?
What is CNA and how does it affect my TLA Ramstein options?
CNA stands for Certificate of Non-Availability — the document issued by on-base lodging (typically Ramstein Inn) when government quarters are full. Your finance office requires it to authorize TLA reimbursement for off-base housing.
How the CNA process works:
- 1Contact Ramstein Inn (or the relevant on-base lodging) on arrival or before your PCS
- 2Request a room — if none is available, they issue a CNA
- 3Keep the CNA document — your finance office requires it to authorize TLA
- 4Present the CNA when submitting your TLA reimbursement claim
Important: Always contact on-base lodging first and obtain your CNA before committing to off-base TLA housing. Your Relocation Manager handles this workflow inside phase 2 of the Prime Relocation Program.
What is the daily TLA Ramstein rate ceiling by rank?
What is the daily TLA Ramstein rate ceiling by rank?
The daily TLA Ramstein rate ceiling is set by the DoD and varies by rank, dependent count, and the lodging / meals / incidentals component split. It is not a single fixed dollar amount — finance recalculates the locality periodically.
Three factors that drive your specific ceiling:
- 1Your rank (E-5, E-6, O-3, etc.) — sets the base service-member percentage
- 2Dependent count — adds tiered dependent percentages (spouse + each child)
- 3On-base vs off-base — different reimbursement structures for each
Verify your specific rate: The JTR locality table and your finance office are the only authoritative sources. Prime TLA Ramstein sets your nightly rate for your rank and dependent percentage so it sits inside the ceiling — the lodging component is always reimbursable.
Direct billing or do I pay first and reclaim TLA Ramstein?
Direct billing or do I pay first and reclaim TLA Ramstein?
You pay first and reclaim — that is the only workflow, and it is how TLA is designed to work. TLA is a reimbursement allowance paid to you, not to the lodging, so there is no direct billing to your finance office.
Pay-first-reclaim
- · You pay Prime TLA directly (credit card or bank transfer)
- · Finance-ready itemized invoice each certification cycle
- · Submit the TLA claim through your finance office
- · Reclaim the lodging component within the DoD ceiling
Plan a cash-flow buffer: Reimbursement posts after each cycle, so budget to cover the first cycle out of pocket before TLA lands on your LES.
Your Relocation Manager assembles the reimbursement packet at the end of each cycle — itemized invoice, occupancy proof, CNA, dependent docs — so finance turns it around quickly.
How far in advance should I book TLA Ramstein?
How far in advance should I book TLA Ramstein?
60–90 days out is the sweet spot — earlier if you’re landing in peak PCS season (May–August). Tentative holds are available as soon as you have anticipated orders, before final paperwork.
Peak season (May–Aug)
Book 60–90+ days out. Units fill fast, pet-friendly + family-sized first.
Off-peak (Sept–Apr)
30–45 days is usually fine. More flexibility on town, size, and dates.
Late decisions are the most common cause of reduced options — not bad luck. Documented orders changes are non-penalty under our military-aware cancellation policy.
Can I extend my TLA Ramstein stay if permanent housing is delayed?
Can I extend my TLA Ramstein stay if permanent housing is delayed?
Yes. TLA Ramstein extensions are routine. Standard OCONUS TLA is up to 60 days, reviewed in 10–15 day increments; at KMC the housing office typically approves up to 30 days, with commander approval needed to extend toward 60.
TLA Extension Process:
- 1Notify your unit and finance office as early as possible — do not wait until the last day
- 2Provide documentation of why permanent housing is not yet available (waitlist letter, HHG delay notice, lease delay)
- 3Reviewed in 10–15 day increments; KMC housing office approves up to ~30 days, commander approval to extend toward 60
- 4Tell your Relocation Manager — we keep you in the same unit so you do not have to move twice
Note: Extension approval is handled by your unit and finance office — not by Prime TLA. We provide the housing and the paperwork; your chain of command authorizes the continued entitlement.
