Frequently Asked Questions

What are the GOSI deduction rates for Saudi nationals in 2026?

For Saudi nationals under the established scheme, the employee deduction is 9.75% of contributory wage (9.0% Annuities + 0.75% SANED). The employer contributes 11.75% (9.0% Annuities + 0.75% SANED + 2.0% Occupational Hazards), bringing total social security contributions to 21.5%.

Are expatriates (foreign workers) subject to GOSI deductions in Saudi Arabia?

No. Expatriate workers in Saudi Arabia do not contribute to Annuities (pension) or SANED. The employer pays a mandatory 2.0% contribution for Occupational Hazards (فرع الأخطار المهنية) to GOSI, resulting in 0 SAR deducted from the expatriate's salary.

Which salary components are subject to GOSI deductions?

Under GOSI regulations, only the Basic Wage (الأجر الأساسي) plus the Housing Allowance (بدل السكن) are subject to GOSI contributions. Transportation allowances, mobile bills, commissions, and overtime pay are completely exempt from contributory wages.

What is the maximum salary cap for GOSI contributions?

The statutory maximum insurable wage ceiling is SAR 45,000 per month for basic wage and housing allowance combined. Any salary amount exceeding SAR 45,000 is not subject to GOSI deductions or employer contributions.

How does the New Social Insurance Law (Pension Reform) work?

The New Social Insurance Law applies to new labor market entrants under age 50 with fewer than 20 years of existing service. It gradually increases annuity contribution rates by 0.5% annually starting from year 2 until reaching 11% for the employee and 11% for the employer (22% total), while gradually shifting the retirement age from 58 to 65.
