How is UAE Gratuity Calculated in 2026?
Under the UAE Labor Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021), end-of-service benefits are a statutory right for all employees who complete at least one year of continuous service. The law has removed the distinction between “Limited” and “Unlimited” contracts, unifying the calculation for all private-sector employees.
The Gratuity Formula:
- Service between 1 to 5 years: You receive 21 days’ basic salary for each year of service.
- Service over 5 years: You receive 30 days’ basic salary for each additional year of service.
Important Rules to Remember:
- The Cap: The total gratuity amount cannot exceed the equivalent of two years’ (24 months) basic salary.
- Resignation vs. Termination: Under the new law, the calculation remains largely the same regardless of whether you resign or are terminated, provided you have completed at least one year.
- Unpaid Leave: Periods of absence without pay (unpaid leave) are excluded from the “Years of Service” calculation.
