Frequently Asked Questions

Is there income tax on salary in the UAE?

No. The UAE levies no personal income tax, so your gross salary is your take-home pay.

How is gratuity calculated in the UAE?

21 days' basic wage for each year of the first five years (30 days/year after that), per UAE Labour Law — paid on top of your salary when you leave.

Does gratuity use basic salary or total package?

Basic wage only — allowances are excluded unless your contract says otherwise.

What is the difference between limited and unlimited contracts for gratuity?

Under the current labour law the distinction is largely gone; gratuity accrues the same way, with small reductions only if you resign very early.
