Today we're breaking down one of the most searched topics among UAE expats and residents: how to calculate your salary in the UAE — including basic pay, allowances, and what actually hits your bank account. If you're working in the UAE, your salary package typically has three components: basic salary, housing allowance, and transport allowance. Understanding how these are split matters — because your end-of-service gratuity is calculated only on your basic salary, not the total package. Here's a simple example. If your total package is AED 10,000 per month, with AED 5,000 basic, AED 3,000 housing, and AED 2,000 transport — your gratuity after one year would be based on AED 5,000, not ten thousand. That's a significant difference most people miss. Want to skip the manual math?
