How Gratuity is Calculated in Qatar

According to Qatar Labour Law -Article 54, the gratuity is computed as follows:

Where:
Basic Salary = Your last drawn monthly basic pay.
21 days = The minimum gratuity per year of service.
Years of Service = Total completed years in the company

Example Calculations

Employee with 3 Years of Service

Joining Date: 01/01/2021
Last Working Date: 01/01/2024
Basic Salary: QAR 7,500

Step 1: Daily salary = 7,500 ÷ 30 = QAR 250
Step 2: 21 days = 250 × 21 = QAR 5,250
Step 3: 3 years = 5,250 × 3 = QAR 15,750

Total Gratuity Payable: QAR 15,750

Employee with 7 Years of Service

Joining Date: 10/05/2016
Last Working Date: 10/05/2023

Step 2: 21 days = 400 × 21 = QAR 8,400
Step 3: 7 years = 8,400 × 7 = QAR 58,800
