Legal tools

An interactive guide to the right service, an end-of-service award calculator and a quick search across the whole site. Open to everyone, no sign-up.

Legal calculators

Quick estimates under the Saudi Labour Law as amended in 2025. They do not replace a lawyer's review.

End-of-service award calculator

An estimate of the award under Articles 84, 85 and 87 of the Labour Law, with leave-balance pay and other dues.

The award is based on the last wage (basic pay with fixed allowances): half a month for each of the first five years and a full month for each later year, with parts of a year paid pro rata (Art. 84). Leave pay uses the actual daily wage (monthly wage divided by 30) under Art. 111. Tickets and other benefits are due as the contract provides. This is an estimate and may differ depending on the contract, work rules and court rulings.

Compensation for unlawful termination

Article 77: 15 days' wage for each year of service under an indefinite contract, or the wage for the remaining period of a fixed-term contract, with a minimum of two months' wage, unless the contract sets a specific amount.

Notice period for indefinite contracts after the 2025 amendments: 60 days when the employer terminates, 30 days when the employee does. A non-Saudi employee's contract is always fixed-term (Art. 37): if it states no term, the term is one year from the start date, and it renews for the same period if work continues; it never becomes indefinite. For a non-Saudi employee, choose "Fixed term".

Annual leave balance and value

Article 109: 21 days a year, rising to 30 days after five continuous years with the same employer. Unused days are paid when the contract ends.

Overtime pay

Article 107: overtime hourly pay = actual hourly wage + 50% of the basic hourly wage (based on 30 days and 8 hours a day). Time off in lieu may be agreed instead.

Dates and deadlines

Convert between Hijri (Umm al-Qura) and Gregorian dates, and find the end date of a period in days.

Or enter a Hijri date

The Hijri calendar used is Umm al-Qura and may differ by a day from moon sighting. Statutory deadlines vary by case type and law; confirm them with your lawyer.

Limitation periods calculator

Choose the type of right and the start date to see the last day a claim can be heard.

The period is interrupted by the debtor's acknowledgment or a judicial claim, and the court does not apply it on its own motion. The date is an estimate and needs a lawyer's review.

Objection and appeal deadlines

Find the last day to object to a judgment or to seek annulment of an arbitral award.

If the last day is an official holiday, the deadline moves to the next working day. Public holidays and Eids are not included, so check them.

Sick leave pay

Labour Law: the first 30 days at full pay, the next 60 days at three quarters, and the following 30 days unpaid, within one year.

Iddah (waiting period) calculator

Estimate when the waiting period ends under the Personal Status Law.

For a pregnant woman it ends with delivery, and for a woman who menstruates it is three cycles, so neither can be dated. Months here are lunar (Umm al-Qura).

VAT and real estate transaction tax

VAT is 15%; the real estate transaction tax is 5% of the property value.

Judicial costs estimate

Judicial Costs Law: costs of up to 5% of the claim value, capped at SAR 1 million; the implementing regulations set the criteria and exemptions.

Usually exempt: personal status cases, workers' labour claims, Board of Grievances cases and others. This is a ceiling; the court sets the actual amount.

Inheritance shares calculator

Answer short yes or no questions to see each heir's share as a fraction, parts and amount, with exclusion, 'awl and radd, plus calculators for distant kindred and successive deaths.

An estimate based on the inheritance rules applied in Saudi Arabia (Hanbali school). It does not cover distant kindred, an unborn child, missing persons or successive deaths. The estate is divided after funeral costs, debts and any bequest of up to one third; the heirs are established by the court's deed of heirs, and the division is made by agreement or by a court judgment.
