There are five types: Left, Right, Center, Decimal and Bar.
The 5 different types of tabs in Microsoft Word are:Left Tab StopRight Tab StopCentre Tab StopDecimal Tab StopBar Tab Stop
These are tab stops. In Microsoft Word you can create a tab stop by clicking and dragging on the horizontal ruler, where they appear as flipped-over black L or T marks. If there are faint marks below the ruler at 1-inch intervals, these are the default tab stops.
The custom tab marker is different for each kind of tab, so for example a left tab marker looks different to a decimal tab marker, so in this sense they will indicate the alignment that would be implemented if the tab key is pressed and the tab is used. If the tab is not used, then it does not indicate what way the text is aligned.

Tabs can only be created on the ruler. You could put a tab at the very right end of the ruler, but it would be easier to just right align the text. Tabs are for setting positions that are not at the absolute left, right or centre of the page. That is what alignments can do. So it would make no sense to put a tab at the extreme right or left of the ruler.
