When should you use GOSI deduction calculator?
The GOSI deduction calculator provides a preliminary estimate from contributory wage and the selected contributor status. As reviewed on 15 August 2026, the employee annuities rate is 9% under the existing system and 10% for eligible new-system entrants from July 2026; SANED adds 0.75% where applicable. Confirm the rate shown in your official GOSI record because status and transitional rules matter.
Limits and when to use another source
This is an educational calculator, not a GOSI service or entitlement record. Rates, limits, categories, and a person's status can change. Verify the result through GOSI and qualified payroll support before relying on it for a dispute or binding decision.
A realistic worked example
An employee enters basic salary and housing allowance as contributory components and keeps transport allowance separate. If the estimate differs from payroll, they request a breakdown of the registered contributory wage, branch rates, and effective period before assuming either figure is wrong.
Interpretation: A payroll difference is diagnostic, not proof of error. Compare contributor category, contributory wage, effective date, branch rates, and caps before escalating the discrepancy.

What should you prepare?

- Basic salary and housing allowance from the written offer or payslip.
- The contributor status and branch details shown in the official GOSI record.

How to use GOSI deduction calculator step by step
- Identify the contributor system and contributory wage components from official records.
- Enter basic and housing values separately and select SANED or other supported branches accurately.
- Read the rate, cap, employee share, and employer breakdown instead of relying only on net pay.
- Compare the estimate with GOSI and payroll records, then ask for the registered basis if they differ.
How should you read the result?
The result separates contributory wage, estimated employee share, approximate net pay, and—where supported—the employer share. It is date-sensitive and does not cover every branch, exception, or individual status.
- Contributory wage
- Estimated employee share
- Applicable employer breakdown
What does the tool actually do?
- Builds contributory wage from the supported wage components and applies the selected system status and current configured limits.
- Separates existing-system and eligible new-system Saudi contributor rates.
- Shows the employee estimate and, where configured, the employer breakdown with an explicit verification date.
