How This Calculator Works

Choose your country above to open a dedicated calculator that follows that country's official end-of-service labour law. Each calculator walks you through the same steps:

1. Enter Your Salary

Provide your last drawn monthly basic salary (used for statutory gratuity) and, optionally, your total package (used for notice pay calculations).

2. Enter Your Employment Dates

Add your joining date and last working date. The calculator works out your exact qualifying service length, excluding any unpaid absence days.

3. Add Leave, Notice, and Deductions

Enter unused annual leave days to be encashed, any notice period shortfall (and who owes whom, since the direction depends on who ended the contract), and any lawful deductions such as documented loans or advances.

4. Review Your Settlement

The calculator shows a full year-by-year gratuity accrual breakdown alongside your leave pay, notice adjustment, and final net settlement — all based on the statutory formula for your selected country.

5. Convert to Your Home Currency

Once your settlement is calculated, use the built-in currency converter to see the approximate value in Indian Rupees, Pakistani Rupees, Bangladeshi Taka, Nepali Rupees, Philippine Pesos, Sri Lankan Rupees, or any of 130+ other currencies, using live exchange rates.

GCC Gratuity Laws at a Glance

Every GCC country requires private-sector employers to pay end-of-service gratuity, but the calculation rate, how resignation affects your payout, and whether there's a maximum cap all differ significantly by country. Below is a summary comparison — for the full calculation method and worked examples for a specific country, open that country's calculator page.

Country Accrual Rate If You Resign Statutory Cap
UAE 21 days/yr (yrs 1–5), 30 days/yr (yr 6+) No reduction 24 months' salary
Saudi Arabia 15 days/yr (yrs 1–5), 30 days/yr (yr 6+) Reduced: 0% under 2yrs, 1/3 at 2–5yrs, 2/3 at 5–10yrs, full after 10yrs None specified
Kuwait 15 days/yr (yrs 1–5), 30 days/yr (yr 6+) Reduced: 0% under 3yrs, 50% at 3–5yrs, 2/3 at 5–10yrs, full after 10yrs 18 months' salary
Qatar 21 days/yr, flat rate every year No reduction None specified
Oman 15 days/yr (yrs 1–3), 30 days/yr (yr 4+) No reduction None specified
Bahrain 15 days/yr (yrs 1–3), 30 days/yr (yr 4+) No reduction None specified

The biggest difference: does resigning reduce your gratuity?

This is the single most consequential difference across the GCC, and it catches a lot of people out. In the UAE, Qatar, Oman, and Bahrain, resigning does not reduce your gratuity at all — once you've completed the qualifying one year of service, you get 100% of your accrued entitlement whether you resigned or were terminated. In Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, however, resigning before certain service milestones significantly cuts what you're owed — in Saudi Arabia, resigning with less than 2 years of service forfeits your entitlement entirely, and even after 2 years you may only receive a third of your accrued amount until you pass the 5- and 10-year marks. If you're weighing whether to resign or wait, this difference alone can be worth a substantial amount of money, and it's exactly why we built a country-specific calculator instead of one generic GCC formula.

Why the accrual rate isn't the same everywhere

Most GCC countries use a tiered rate that increases the longer you've worked, but the tier boundaries differ: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait all raise the rate after 5 years of service, while Oman and Bahrain raise it after just 3 years. Qatar is the outlier with a single flat rate that never increases. None of these differences are arbitrary — they reflect each country's own labour law history and amendments, which is also why a generic "GCC gratuity calculator" that applies one formula to every country will typically get at least some countries wrong.

Recent legal changes worth knowing about

GCC labour law is not static. Oman's current calculation method only took effect with Royal Decree 53/2023 on 31 July 2023, replacing an older structure. The UAE's current rules date to Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021, which notably removed the resignation-based reductions that existed under the older 1980 law. Bahrain changed how gratuity is paid out (though not how it's calculated) on 1 March 2024, moving to a government-administered social insurance system for newly accrued entitlement. Each country's individual calculator page goes into these changes in more detail.

This comparison reflects our understanding of each country's labour law at the time of writing and is for general informational purposes only, not legal advice. Always confirm your specific entitlement with your country's labour ministry or a licensed local labour lawyer.

Welcome to GCC Gratuity Calculator. We built this platform because end-of-service settlement calculations across the Gulf are genuinely difficult to get right — six different countries, six different accrual formulas, and rules around resignation, notice periods, and statutory caps that vary enough between jurisdictions that a single generic "GCC calculator" formula will get at least some countries wrong. Our goal is to give workers, employers, and HR administrators a fast, transparent way to estimate what's actually owed under each country's own labour law, not a one-size-fits-all approximation.

How our calculations are built

Each country's calculator is built directly from that country's own labour law text — for example, Articles 84 and 85 of Saudi Arabia's Labour Law for resignation-based reductions, or Article 54 of Qatar's Labour Law No. 14 of 2004 for its flat accrual rate. Where a country's rules have recently changed — such as Oman's Royal Decree 53/2023 or Bahrain's move to a government-administered payment system in March 2024 — we've tried to reflect the current rules and flag where older service periods may need separate treatment. Every calculator shows a full year-by-year accrual breakdown and an explicit "how was this calculated" summary, so you can see exactly how we arrived at your result rather than just a single number.

What we don't do

We are not a government body, a law firm, or an official calculation tool of MoHRE, Qiwa, PAM, or any other labour ministry. Our estimates are based on our own reading of publicly available labour law and are intended to help you understand roughly what you're owed before you resign, negotiate, or query a settlement — not to replace a binding calculation from your employer, HR department, or a licensed labour lawyer.

Keeping this up to date

GCC labour law changes periodically, and we review each country's calculator against current published law when we become aware of a change. If you believe a calculation is out of date or incorrect for your country, please get in touch using the contact details below — we take accuracy seriously given how much these figures matter to the people using them.

Every calculator includes leave encashment, notice period adjustments, lawful deductions, and a full year-by-year accrual breakdown.

Can I convert my gratuity to Indian Rupees, Pakistani Rupees, or another currency?
Yes. Every calculator result includes a currency converter that shows your settlement in Indian Rupees (INR), Pakistani Rupees (PKR), Bangladeshi Taka (BDT), Nepali Rupees (NPR), Philippine Pesos (PHP), Sri Lankan Rupees (LKR), and 130+ other world currencies, using live exchange rates.

How many currencies are supported?
Over 140 currencies are supported, with Asian and Middle Eastern currencies (including INR, PKR, BDT, NPR, PHP, LKR, and all GCC currencies) listed first for quick access, followed by currencies from Africa, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania.

Are the exchange rates live or fixed?
Rates are fetched live each time you convert, with results cached for a few hours for faster repeat use. If a live rate is temporarily unavailable, the calculator automatically tries a secondary exchange rate source before showing an error.

Is the converted amount exact?
Converted amounts are approximate and intended to help you understand roughly what your settlement is worth in your home currency. Actual amounts you receive may differ slightly due to bank fees, remittance provider margins, and exchange rate movement between calculation and payment.

Your privacy matters to us, especially given the kind of information a gratuity calculator naturally involves — your salary, employment dates, and settlement details.

What happens to the numbers you enter

All gratuity calculations run entirely inside your own browser. Your salary, employment dates, leave days, and any other figures you enter are never transmitted to our servers, stored in a database, or shared with any third party. If you close the tab or refresh the page, that information is gone — we simply never had a copy of it to begin with.

Currency conversion

When you use the currency converter, only the currency codes involved and the numeric amount being converted are sent to our exchange-rate data providers to fetch a live rate — no other information about you or your calculation is included in that request.

Cookies and local storage

We use your browser's local storage (not tracking cookies) to remember a small number of preferences, such as your selected language and whether you've dismissed certain prompts. This information stays on your own device and is not accessible to us.

Purpose of this site

GCC Gratuity Calculator is provided to help you understand general end-of-service entitlement formulas and labour guidelines across GCC states. It does not calculate final, official, or legally binding amounts, and using it does not create any advisory or professional relationship between you and us.

No warranty of accuracy

While we make a genuine effort to keep each country's calculation method current with published labour law, we cannot guarantee that every result is accurate, complete, or up to date for your specific circumstances. Labour law is applied by ministries, employers, and courts based on the full facts of an individual case, which a general calculator cannot fully replicate — factors like collective agreements, individual contract terms, free-zone-specific rules, or recent unpublished regulatory guidance may affect your actual entitlement.

Not legal or financial advice

Nothing on this site constitutes legal, financial, or professional advice. For a binding determination of your entitlement, consult your country's labour ministry, your employer's HR department, or a licensed local labour lawyer.

Acceptable use

You may use this site for personal, non-commercial reference. You may not scrape, republish, or resell the content or calculation logic on this site without our permission.

Limitation of liability

We are not liable for any decisions made, or losses incurred, based on figures produced by this calculator. Use of this site is entirely at your own risk.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the site or applicable law changes. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

The calculations provided on this portal are for general informational purposes only. Please verify your official figures with your company HR department or official labor ministry channels.
