Tax-Free Income

Saudi Arabia levies no personal income tax on expatriates, and expats make no GOSI employee contribution — your gross salary is your take-home. A separate dependent levy (SAR 400/dependent per month) applies to family members; it is budgeted outside salary, not deducted from pay.

Housing Allowance Not Included in Salary Figures

Salaries shown are base pay only. Most hospitals provide a housing allowance (25-40% of base) or free accommodation separately, plus transport and (often) annual flights — total packages typically exceed the stated salary.

Exchange rate: SAR 1 = INR 25.46 (live)

Rates change daily. All INR figures use this rate.
