- Topological edge states in gaps of non-Hermitian systems are robust due to topological protection. Using the non-Hermitian Floquet Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model, we show that this robustness can break down: edge states may be suppressed by infinitesimal perturbations that preserve sublattice symmetry. We identify this fragility to the instability of the quasienergy spectrum in finite-size systems, leading to a breakdown of the non-Bloch bulk-boundary correspondence defined on the generalized Brillouin zone. To resolve this, we establish a correspondence between the number of stable zero-mode singular states and the topologically protected edge states in the thermodynamic limit. Our results formulate a bulk-boundary correspondence for Floquet non-Hermitian systems, where topology arises intrinsically from the driven non-Hermitian systems, even without symmetries. Our results provide a promising new avenue for exploring novel non-Hermitian topological phases.
