Take-Home Salary Calculator
Estimate your net take-home salary after GOSI contributions, for Saudi and non-Saudi employees.
This estimate applies your entered employee rate to basic salary plus housing allowance, capped at SAR 45,000/month. Other cash allowances are included in take-home pay but excluded from this estimated contribution basis. The 9.75% starting rate is illustrative for the established Saudi scheme, not a universal current rate. Check your registered wage and applicable pension/SANED rate with GOSI, especially under the newer scheme or with housing in kind. The non-Saudi option assumes no employee deduction; GCC nationals and other special cases need their own calculation. Other payroll deductions are excluded. Source: GOSI
