2-Year Salary Cap

Calculated under UAE Federal Labour Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021). Gratuity is based on basic salary only — housing and transport allowances are excluded. Maximum gratuity is capped at 2 years' basic salary.

What is the UAE Gratuity Calculator?

The UAE End of Service Gratuity (EOSB) is a statutory payment that all private-sector employees are entitled to after completing at least one year of continuous service. Calculated under Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 on the Regulation of Labour Relations, gratuity is based solely on your basic monthly salary — housing, transport, and other allowances are excluded. The formula gives 21 working days of basic pay per year for the first five years, then 30 days per year beyond that, subject to a total cap of 24 months' basic salary.

Formula

Daily wage = Basic salary ÷ 30. First 5 years: Gratuity = Daily wage × 21 × min(years, 5). Beyond 5 years: Additional gratuity = Daily wage × 30 × (years − 5). Total is capped at 24 months' basic salary.
