Its 100% taxable. Korea is not included in the combat zone tax exclusion.

That seems to be a popular rumor going around.... but they are right it's not...... I'm a C-5 Loadmaster and I flew there a few months ago..... landed at Osan...
Never got my tax free for that month...... next month went to Kuwait. BAM 700 bucks back.....

Yeah I am at Osan right now...not that much fun. But I dont have my girl over here and that is a big part of it. But to answer your question no it's not tax free over here.
cookba- it is really hard to go on a tour of any length why you are in Korea there is to much to do here and shops cant afford to deploy there people.
