Calculate your Oman end-of-service gratuity (EOSB) instantly. Based on the Labour Law issued by Royal Decree No. 53 of 2023, Article 61 (which replaced the older Royal Decree No. 35 of 2003). Free, no sign-up required.
Important: the 2023 Labour Law change
In late July 2023, Oman's new Labour Law (Royal Decree 53/2023) moved gratuity to 1 full month of basic salary per year. For service before that date the Ministry of Labour still applies the old formula (15 days/year for the first three years, then one month/year). If your employment spans the change, this calculator splits and totals the two parts for you.

At-a-glance summary — enter your own figures in the calculator above for an exact, year-by-year breakdown.
How does the split calculation work?
Service before the July 2023 change uses the old formula (15 days/year for the first three years, then one month/year). Service from the change uses one month/year. Both amounts are totalled automatically.
Do I get EOSB if I resign in Oman?
Yes — Oman law has no resignation penalty. You receive the same gratuity whether you resign or are terminated.
What if my employer hasn't paid?
File a complaint with the Ministry of Labour, Oman. Delays in EOSB payment are a breach of Omani labour law.
Oman's end-of-service gratuity is set by the Labour Law issued under Royal Decree No. 53 of 2023 (Article 61), which replaced the older Royal Decree No. 35 of 2003 and took effect in late July 2023. For service under the new law, you earn one full month of basic salary per year from the first year. For service before the change, the Ministry of Labour applies the old formula: 15 days of basic salary per year for the first three years, then one month per year. The gratuity is calculated on your basic salary only, and there is no cap on the total.
The day-rate convention used here is your monthly basic salary divided by 30. Part-years are paid pro-rata, and there is no minimum service: even under a year accrues a proportional amount. There is also no resignation penalty — a resigning employee and a terminated employee with the same service receive the same gratuity.
If your employment spans the July 2023 change, this tool calculates the two portions separately and adds them together. If you joined on or after that date, the whole amount uses the new one-month-per-year rate. For the full legal basis and the assumptions this tool makes, see our methodology page.
Example 1 — joined after the change (new law only)
Started after the July 2023 change, basic salary OMR 500, 3 full years of service:
Example 2 — pre-2023 portion (old formula)
4 full years before the July 2023 change, basic salary OMR 500 (daily rate OMR 500 ÷ 30 = OMR 16.67):
Example 3 — service that spans July 2023
Your total is the two portions added together: the old-formula amount (15 days/year for the first three years, then one month/year) for service up to the July 2023 change, plus one month per year from the change to your leaving date. The calculator above shows both lines and the combined figure.
Enter your own basic salary and dates in the calculator above for an exact split with a year-by-year breakdown.
How is the daily rate worked out?
Divide your monthly basic salary by 30. For pre-2023 service, apply 15 days per year for the first three years and 30 days (one month) per year after that. For new-law service, each full year is one month of basic salary.
What if I joined after July 2023?
The whole gratuity uses the new one-month-per-year rate — there is no pre-2023 portion because none of your service falls before the cut-off.
Is there a cap on Oman gratuity?
No. Unlike the UAE's two-year ceiling, Oman sets no maximum — your full calculated entitlement is payable.
Does the gratuity include my allowances?
No — it is based on basic salary only. Housing, transport and similar allowances are excluded from the gratuity base.
