Egypt End of Service Calculator (2026)

An end of service calculator Egypt employees can use (مكافأة نهاية الخدمة) — estimate your end-of-service benefit under Egyptian labour law, with a clear note to verify against the new 2025 law.

Egypt does not have a Gulf-style end-of-service gratuity

Unlike Saudi Arabia or the UAE, Egyptian law gives no general employer-paid gratuity that accrues for every year of service. Ordinary end-of-service is handled through social insurance, and the reward for it is paid by the National Organisation for Social Insurance under Article 157 of Law 148 of 2019, on a capped insurance wage, not by your employer.

The large per-year payment an employer can owe is compensation for ending an indefinite contract for an unlawful reason: not less than two months’ wage for each year of service under Article 165 of Labour Law 14 of 2025, which replaced Law 12 of 2003 on 1 September 2025. That is what the calculator above works out. Resignation and lawful termination carry no per-year entitlement, so those return zero.

The half-month and one-month tiers widely quoted for Egypt come from Article 172, which covers only service after age 60 (and service before 18) that carries no insurance rights. Applying them to ordinary service overstates what an employer owes. Separately you may be due three months’ pay in lieu of notice under Article 156 and the cash value of untaken annual leave under Article 124.
