We study a topological band degeneracy in non-Hermitian systems with parity-time (PT) and parity-particle-hole (CP) symmetries. In d-dimensional non-Hermitian systems, it is shown that (d - 1)-dimensional exceptional surfaces can appear from band touching thanks to PT or CP symmetry. We investigate the topological stability and zero-gap quasiparticles for the exceptional surfaces due to the band degeneracy. We also demonstrate the band degeneracy by using lattice models of a topological semimetal and a superconductor.
