Hardship Duty Pay – Location (HDP-L)

All service members permanently assigned to or serving temporarily as additional duty/temporary duty (TAD/TDY), deployed or attached status for more than 30 consecutive days in a designated area are eligible for HDP-L. 

Eligibility for HDP-L begins the day of arrival at the new station for service members on permanent reassignment.


Service members serving TDY in a designated area are ineligible for HDP-L during the first 30 days of consecutive duty. HDP-L for temporary assignment begins on the 31st day and is payable retroactive to the date the service member reported for duty at the designated location.

HDP-L entitlements will be terminated on the day the service member departs the station as a result of permanent change of station (PCS) reassignment or on the last day of the effective period. Termination dates may vary based on specific situations as defined by the DoD.

Hardship Duty Pay – Mission (HDP-M)

Hardship duty pay – mission (HDP-M) is payable to service members, both officer and enlisted, for performing designated hardship missions. HDP-M is payable at the full monthly rate during any part of which the member performs a specified mission.

Hardship Duty Pay – Tempo (HDP-T)

Hardship duty pay – tempo (HDP-T) programs are for the mobilization or deployment tempo requiring the service member to perform duties in an operational environment for periods that exceed rotation norms. Military departments determine whether or not to implement HDP-T programs.

Hardship Duty Pay – Restriction of Movement (HDP-ROM)

Hardship duty pay – restriction of movement (HDP-ROM) is pay compensating service members who are not currently in a travel status and are ordered to self-isolate. The pay is set at $100 per day and is not to exceed $1,500 per month.
