Fully Managed, WPS-Compliant Payroll — Dubai, UAE
Payroll Service`s in Dubai, UAE
Finvida Consultancy provides fully managed, WPS-compliant payroll services in Dubai — ensuring your employees are paid accurately and on time, and your business meets all UAE labour and regulatory requirements.
Payroll Complexity in the UAE
Managing payroll in the UAE is more complex than simply processing monthly salaries. Businesses must comply with the Wage Protection System (WPS), calculate end-of-service gratuity correctly, manage leave entitlements, and ensure all employment deductions and allowances are accurately applied. Errors in payroll can lead to employee disputes, MOHRE complaints, and regulatory penalties.
Changing Labour Laws
The UAE’s labour laws are regularly updated, and keeping up with the latest requirements while also running your business day to day is a significant challenge — particularly for growing businesses managing a larger workforce.
Finvida Payroll Support
Finvida Consultancy takes complete ownership of your payroll function. We calculate salaries, process payments through WPS, manage gratuity provisions, and produce payslips — giving your employees confidence and your business the compliance it needs.

What are the Key Payroll Requirements in the UAE?
Wage Protection System (WPS)
The WPS is a mandatory electronic salary transfer system regulated by the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE). All mainland businesses and most freezone companies are required to pay employee salaries through WPS-approved channels. Non-compliance can result in fines, licence suspension, and restrictions on hiring new staff. Finvida Consultancy ensures all payroll is processed and submitted through WPS accurately and on time every month.
End-of-Service Gratuity
UAE labour law entitles employees to an end-of-service gratuity payment upon the termination of their employment — calculated based on their length of service and basic salary. Incorrectly calculating or failing to provision for gratuity is one of the most common payroll errors made by UAE businesses. Finvida Consultancy calculates gratuity entitlements accurately for every employee in accordance with current UAE labour law.
What are the Payroll Standards in Dubai, UAE?
Payroll in the UAE is governed primarily by Federal Law No. 33 of 2021 (the UAE Labour Law) and its subsequent amendments. Businesses must pay salaries within the timeframe stipulated by MOHRE, maintain accurate payroll records for a minimum of five years, and comply with all applicable employment contract terms.
Finvida Consultancy manages all aspects of payroll in line with these requirements — providing a fully documented and audit-ready payroll function that protects both your business and your employees.

Our Working Process
Frequently Asked Questions
What is WPS and is it mandatory?
The Wage Protection System (WPS) is a mandatory electronic salary transfer system in the UAE. It requires businesses to pay employee salaries through approved banks or financial institutions within specific timeframes. Non-compliance results in fines and can affect your trade licence. Finvida Consultancy manages your WPS submissions as part of the monthly payroll process.
How is end-of-service gratuity calculated in the UAE?
Gratuity is calculated based on an employee’s basic salary and length of service. For the first five years of employment, the entitlement is 21 days of basic salary per year. Beyond five years, it increases to 30 days per year. Finvida Consultancy calculates and provisions for gratuity accurately for every employee.
Can you manage payroll for both mainland and freezone companies?
Yes. We provide payroll services for companies across all UAE jurisdictions — mainland, freezone, and offshore — adapting our process to the specific WPS and labour law requirements of each.
How do I provide payroll data to Finvida each month?
We make the process as simple as possible. You provide updates — such as new hires, salary changes, or overtime — via email or a shared document. Our team handles all calculations and submissions from there.
What happens if we hire or lose an employee mid-month?
We calculate partial month salaries and pro-rated gratuity entitlements for any employee joining or leaving mid-month — ensuring accurate processing regardless of timing.
