Do I get EOSB if I resign in Qatar?
Yes — since the 2020 labour reforms, there is no resignation penalty. You receive the same EOSB whether you resign or are terminated.
When must my employer pay EOSB?
Upon termination of the employment contract. Delays may constitute a breach of Qatar labour law — file a complaint with the Ministry of Labour.
What if my employer hasn't paid?
File a complaint with the Qatar Ministry of Labour via adlsa.gov.qa — the Amiri Diwan oversees labour dispute resolution.
In Qatar, the end-of-service payment is the gratuity set out in Qatar Labour Law No. 14 of 2004, Article 54. Once you have completed at least one year of continuous service, you earn 21 days of basic salary (three weeks) for every year of service — a flat rate, with no higher tier after the fifth year. The gratuity is worked out on your basic salary only — housing, transport and other allowances are excluded.
The day-rate convention used here is your monthly basic salary divided by 30. So the calculation is: (basic ÷ 30) × the number of gratuity days you have earned. Service beyond whole years is paid pro-rata — a part-year counts as the days worked divided by 365, at the rate that applies to that stretch of service.
Since Qatar's 2020 labour reforms there is no resignation penalty: an employee who resigns and one who is terminated receive the same gratuity for the same service. There is also no cap on the total under Law No. 14 of 2004, unlike the UAE's two-year ceiling. For the full legal basis and the assumptions this tool makes, see our methodology page.
Both examples use a basic salary of QAR 8,000 a month, giving a daily rate of QAR 8,000 ÷ 30 = QAR 266.67.
Example 1 — 3 years of service
Example 2 — 7 years of service

Is there a cap on Qatar gratuity?
No. Qatar Labour Law No. 14 of 2004 sets no maximum on the total gratuity, unlike the UAE, which caps it at two years' total wage. Your full entitlement is payable however large it is.
How is the daily rate worked out?
Divide your monthly basic salary by 30 to get a daily rate, then multiply by the gratuity days you have earned (21 days for every year of service). This is the convention the calculator uses.
Are partial years counted?
Yes. Service beyond complete years is paid pro-rata — counted as days worked divided by 365, at the rate applying to that period. Extra months still add to your gratuity.
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.
