1 KWD = 160.00 EGP

This step compares NET SALARY ONLY — what the employee receives in their pocket. Statutory contributions (SI, taxes), benefits, office overhead, and WEM management fees are added progressively in Steps 2–4.
Next: Add Egypt Employer Statutory Contributions

Step 2: Egypt Employer Statutory Contributions

On top of the net salary, add Egypt's legal employer obligations: Social Insurance (18.75%), Martyrs Fund (0.05%), Annual Leave Reserve, and Medical Insurance.

⚠ Legal Disclaimer & Terms of Use
The figures presented by this calculator are indicative and for guidance purposes only. They do not constitute legal, financial, tax, or accounting advice and must not be relied upon as such.

Variable factors: All calculations are based on statutory rates, government fees, and exchange rates current at the time of publication and are subject to change without notice. Actual costs may vary by ±15–30% depending on individual employee circumstances, company classification, applicable Saudization/Emiratization/Bahrainization requirements, collective agreements, and applicable law in the relevant jurisdiction.

Jurisdiction-specific: Labor law, social insurance regulations, residency fees, and end-of-service entitlements vary across GCC states and are subject to ongoing legislative reform. Users should verify all figures against current official sources and seek qualified local legal and HR counsel before making employment or commercial decisions.

Egypt: Egyptian Social Insurance rates are governed by Law No. 148/2019 (insurable wage range EGP 2,700 — 16,700 per month, 2026 update). Income tax brackets per Law No. 7/2024 with stepped exclusion applied to incomes above EGP 600,000 annually. Labour-law requirements follow Law No. 14 of 2025 (in force since 1 September 2025), which sets the minimum gross wage at EGP 7,000/month, a mandatory 3% periodic raise (or EGP 250 floor), and a hourly minimum of EGP 28 for part-time staff. Insurable wage ceiling is updated annually by the National Social Insurance Authority and is subject to change each January.

Step 5: Termination Cost Calculator

Calculate end-of-service indemnity, notice pay, and unused leave cash-out for any termination scenario. Per Egyptian Labour Law 14/2025 Articles 67, 69, 75, and 110.

📋 Termination Inputs

Use decimals: 2.5 = 2 years 6 months
Minimum: EGP 7,000 (NCW Decree 15/2025)

💼 Termination Cost Breakdown

When is End-of-Service (EOS) Indemnity Owed?

Under Egyptian Labour Law 14/2025 Article 110, EOS indemnity eligibility depends on both length of service and reason for termination:

Scenario 1: Employer-Initiated
EOS Owed From Day 1
Notice-based termination or unjust dismissal: employee receives ½ month per year (first 5 years) + 1 month/year (after year 5).
Scenario 2: Voluntary Resignation
Only After 5 Years of Service
If employee resigns before completing 5 years: no EOS owed. After 5 years: full EOS per the formula above.
Scenario 3: For Cause (Art. 69)
EOS Forfeited Entirely
Termination for gross misconduct: employee loses EOS entitlement entirely, no notice pay required.
💡 WEM Note: EOS is not pre-funded in your monthly invoice — it is only charged at actual when termination occurs. This protects you from over-paying for employees who may not stay long enough to qualify.
