General Information Only

GratuityInUAE.com is a free, independent website providing general information and calculation tools related to UAE end-of-service gratuity and labour law. All content on this website — including articles, guides, calculators, and worked examples — is provided for informational and educational purposes only.

Nothing on this website constitutes legal advice, legal opinion, or a substitute for professional legal counsel. The information provided does not create a lawyer-client relationship between GratuityInUAE.com and any visitor or user.

Not a Substitute for Professional Advice

UAE labour law is complex and fact-specific. Your individual gratuity entitlement depends on your specific contract terms, employment history, the jurisdiction your employer operates in, and other circumstances that an online calculator cannot fully account for.

For any of the following, we strongly recommend consulting a qualified UAE employment lawyer or MOHRE directly:

  • Disputes with your employer over unpaid or underpaid gratuity
  • Complex employment situations involving free zones, contract transfers, or restructuring
  • Termination or constructive dismissal cases
  • Situations involving DIFC, ADGM, or other special jurisdiction employers
  • Claims involving large sums where accuracy is critical

Calculator Results Are Estimates

The UAE Gratuity Calculator and Leave Encashment Calculator on this website produce estimates based on the standard formula set out in Article 51 of Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021. These estimates assume:

  • Standard UAE federal labour law applies to your employment
  • No unpaid leave has been taken (which would reduce your service period)
  • No salary advances or deductions affect the calculation
  • Your employment is continuous with no breaks in service

Final gratuity entitlement is determined by your employer and, in disputed cases, by MOHRE or the UAE labour courts. The calculator output does not constitute a binding legal determination.

Accuracy of Information

We make every effort to ensure the information on this website is accurate, up to date, and aligned with current UAE law. All content is reviewed against primary sources — specifically Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 and MOHRE guidance.

However, UAE labour law is subject to amendment, and MOHRE may issue updated guidance that has not yet been reflected on this site. GratuityInUAE.com makes no warranties or representations regarding the completeness, accuracy, or currency of any information on this website.
