2009 Basic Allowance for Housing

The Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) is based on geographic duty location, pay grade, and dependency status, and is payable when government quarters are not provided.

To calculate your BAH, select your rank and enter the zip code of your CONUS duty station.

Servicemembers stationed overseas are eligible for Overseas Housing Allowance (OHA), which can be calculated at the DoD Per Diem website.
