[Final Thoughts](https://blog.zenhr.com/en/how-to-calculate-vacation-entitlements-in-saudi-arabia-2025-guide#conclusion) ## **Vacation Entitlements Under Saudi Labor Law (2025 Overview)** According to Article 109 of the Saudi Labor Law, all employees are entitled to paid annual leave. This applies to both Saudi nationals and expat workers under official employment contracts. ### **Key Leave Entitlements:** | **Service Duration** | **Vacation Days Per Year** | | --- | --- | | 1 year or more | Minimum 21 days | | 5+ years | Minimum 30 days | Employees must take their leave during the year it is earned unless postponed by mutual agreement. *📝**Note:** The law mandates a minimum, but some companies offer more generous policies based on contracts or internal regulations.*   ## **Who is Eligible for Paid Leave?** To qualify for full annual leave, an employee must: - Be under a valid employment contract (fixed or indefinite) - Complete 12 months of continuous service - Not be on probation during the leave accrual period However, **pro-rated leave** can still be calculated for employees who have not yet completed a full year.   ## **How to Calculate Vacation Days in Saudi Arabia 🧮** ### **Step-by-Step Calculation for 2025** Let’s assume an employee joined on **March 1, 2024**, and is still employed in 2025. #### **1. Determine the Accrual Rate** - 21 days per year = **1.75 days/month** - 30 days per year = **2.5 days/month** (after 5 years of service) #### **2. Pro-Rated Example** If the employee worked 9 months by December 2024: 1.75 × 9 = **15.75 days of paid leave** earned #### **3. Full-Year Calculation** For a full year: - Standard entitlement: **21 days** - Long-term service: **30 days** Round up fractions when issuing leave days—Saudi labor courts often favor employees in such cases.   ## **Public Holidays vs. Annual Leave** ### **Public Holidays (Do *NOT* count as annual leave):** Employees in Saudi Arabia are entitled to paid public holidays, including: - **Eid Al-Fitr** - **Eid Al-Adha** - **Saudi National Day (Sep 23)** - **Founding Day (Feb 22)** If a public holiday overlaps with scheduled annual leave, **it should not be deducted** from the employee's vacation balance.   ## **Special Leave Types in Saudi Arabia (2025)** Besides annual vacation, the law also provides for other types of paid and unpaid leave: | **Type of Leave** | **Duration** | **Paid?** | **Notes** | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Sick Leave | Up to 30 paid days | Yes | Then, partial pay or unpaid, depending on length | | Maternity Leave | 10 weeks | Yes | Can start 4 weeks before the due date | | Paternity Leave | 3 days | Yes | Must be taken around the childbirth date | | Hajj Leave | 10–15 days | Yes | Once during employment, after 2 years of service | | Marriage Leave | 3–5 days (typical) | Varies | Often offered as part of company policy | | Death of Relative | 3–5 days (typical) | Varies | Must be a first-degree relative | *Note: These special leaves **cannot be deducted** from the employee’s annual vacation balance.*   ## **How to Calculate Vacation Salary in Saudi Arabia** Employees must receive full salary during vacation days, based on their **actual earnings** (not just base salary). ### **What to Include:** - Base Salary - Housing Allowance - Transportation Allowance - Other fixed monthly allowances **Formula:** *(Monthly salary ÷ 30) × number of leave days = vacation pay* For example: SAR 9,000/month ÷ 30 = SAR 300/day → 21 days × SAR 300 = **SAR 6,300** *Vacation salary should be **paid in advance** before the employee starts their leave, as per Article 109.* ## **Common Mistakes HR Should Avoid** ❌ Deducting public holidays from vacation balance ❌ Not paying vacation salary in advance ❌ Excluding allowances from salary calculation ❌ Failing to update leave balances in real-time ❌ Ignoring pro-rated leave for partial-year employees ❌ Assuming resignation cancels unused leave rights   ## **FAQs: What People Also Ask** ### **1.How many vacation days are employees entitled to in Saudi Arabia?** Employees are entitled to at least **21 paid vacation days per year**, increasing to **30 days** after five years of continuous service.   ### **2.How is vacation pay calculated in Saudi Arabia?** Vacation pay is based on the employee’s full monthly salary, including fixed allowances. The formula is: ***(Monthly salary ÷ 30) × number of vacation days***   ### **3.Do public holidays count against annual leave?** No. **Public holidays** such as Eid, National Day, or Founding Day **do not count** toward annual vacation days and should not be deducted.   ### **4.Can employees carry over unused vacation?** Yes, but only with employer approval. Unused leave should typically be used within the next calendar year unless otherwise agreed upon.   ### **5.Is it mandatory to pay vacation salary in advance?** Yes. As per Article 109 of the Saudi Labor Law, vacation salary must be paid **before** the employee takes their leave.   ## **It’s More Than Just Vacation** Understanding and calculating vacation entitlements in Saudi Arabia isn’t just about doing right by your employees; it’s about staying legally compliant and building a healthier work culture. By mastering the rules outlined in this 2025 guide, you’ll avoid payroll errors, reduce disputes, and ensure your employees get the rest they deserve. Whether you're processing leave in ZenHR or managing it manually, consistency and accuracy are key. ![Amanee Hasan](https://blog.zenhr.com/hubfs/1782294238755%20(1).jpg) ###### Amanee Hasan Amanee Hasan is a Senior Content Strategist at ZenHR, an award-winning and top-rated HR software solution serving organizations across the MENA region.
