Frequently asked questions

How is end-of-service gratuity calculated?

Under UAE Labour Law 2022 (Federal Decree-Law 33 of 2021): 21 days of basic salary per year for the first 5 years of service, 30 days per year thereafter. Capped at 2 years of basic salary total. The Gratuity Calculator handles unlimited contracts, limited contracts, resignation vs termination, and partial-year service.

Is overtime taxable in UAE?

No — UAE has no personal income tax, so overtime payments are received gross. UAE Labour Law: overtime (beyond 8h/day or 48h/week) is paid at 1.25× base rate; between 9pm-4am at 1.5×; on Fridays/holidays at 1.5× plus a day off in lieu. Calculator covers all cases.

What's the standard UAE work week?

48 hours per week, 8 hours per day under Federal Labour Law. During Ramadan, working hours are reduced by 2 hours per day for ALL employees (Muslim and non-Muslim). The Ramadan Working Hours Calculator shows the daily/weekly impact.

What counts as 'basic salary' for gratuity?

Only the basic salary component — NOT housing allowance, transport, education, or other allowances. Many UAE contracts split basic at ~50-60% of total; gratuity is calculated on the lower number. The Salary Calculator shows your basic vs allowance split clearly.

Does Ramadan apply to me if I'm not Muslim?

Yes — UAE Federal Labour Law mandates the 2-hour reduction for ALL employees during Ramadan, regardless of religion. Some employers implement it as shortened core hours; others as flexi-time. Confirm your company's specific implementation with HR.
