Airmen and Guardians who serve in a combat zone can exclude certain pay from their taxable income. The Combat Zone Tax Exclusion (CZTE) is unlimited for enlisted members and is limited to the maximum enlisted pay amount, plus the amount of Hostile Fire Pay / Imminent Danger Pay payable to the officer for the qualifying month, for officers.

Air National Guard Service members on drill status are not eligible for Combat Zone Tax Exclusion. They are eligible when on federal active duty and serving in a combat zone.
