NAF stands for non-appropriated Fund. The term APF stands for appropriated fund. NAF employees are not deemed to be federal employees for purposes of most Office Personnel Management-administered laws and regulations. Thus, the policies, procedures, and entitlements relating to NAF employees are different than those for appropriated fund (civil service) employees.
