The Google Cloud Platform Free Tier consists of a 12-month free trial with $300 credit and Always Free usage services. There is no additional limitation or a real difference between the resources that you can use before or after the Free Tier.

Regarding Compute Engine resources you have this Always Free resources:

1 non-preemptible f1-micro VM instance per month in one of the following US regions:

  • Oregon: us-west1
  • Iowa: us-central1 South
  • Carolina: us-east1

30 GB-months HDD 5 GB-month snapshot storage in the following regions:

  • Oregon: us-west1
  • Iowa: us-central1 South
  • Carolina: us-east1
  • Taiwan: asia-east1
  • Belgium: europe-west1

1 GB network egress from North America to all region destinations (excluding China and Australia) per month

There is no charge for ingress traffic or egress traffic to the same zone
