How much gratuity would I build up on a AED 620,000 salary?
Assuming AED 620,000 is your basic salary, after 5 years of service you'd be entitled to roughly AED 178,356 in end-of-service gratuity, rising to about AED 433,151 at 10 years.

3
Is this figure based on my basic salary or total package?
Gratuity is calculated on basic salary only. If AED 620,000 is your total package including housing and transport allowances, your actual basic salary (and gratuity) will likely be lower: many UAE packages set basic pay at 60-80% of the total. Check your offer letter for the exact split.
4
Are there any other deductions from this salary?
No personal income tax and no payroll social-security deduction apply to expatriate employees in the UAE. Some employers deduct a small amount for health insurance co-pay or optional benefits, but there's no statutory tax or NI-equivalent withholding.
5
Does this apply to all Emirates, not just Dubai?
Yes. UAE Labour Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021) and the tax-free treatment of salaries apply federally across all seven Emirates, including free zones like DIFC and ADGM (though some free zones run their own employer-funded savings scheme, such as DEWS, instead of standard gratuity).
UAE take-home figures reflect Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 and current UAE tax policy (no personal income tax). Gratuity assumes the full quoted salary is basic pay; actual gratuity depends on your specific basic/allowance split. Always confirm with your employer's HR or a UAE employment adviser for your exact entitlement.
