Payroll for Saudi teams

GOSI in the run, WPS as a CSV — not the ministry portals

Estimate contributions in the browser. On Business, freeze a monthly run, export a payroll CSV, and post the ledger. Fawtar is not GOSI, not Madad, and not a full HR system.

Payroll runs are available on Business. Business costs 99 SAR per month including VAT, paid by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. See plans and payment options.

Two GOSI schemes sit side by side. Existing contributors keep the prior annuity rates; the new scheme phases in from 3 July 2024. Confirm the month on GOSI’s site. The calculator asks for a calendar year as an estimate.

  1. Check scheme and nationality before you trust a percentage.
  2. Contribution wage in Fawtar is basic salary plus housing, not every allowance.
  3. Export the CSV only after every employee has a Saudi IBAN. A bank may reject the whole file for one blank line.

Short questions

Does Fawtar file GOSI contributions?

No. The public calculator is an estimate. Registration and payment run through GOSI. Fawtar’s payroll run stores that month’s figures on Business.

Does Fawtar upload the WPS file to Madad?

No. It exports a payroll CSV and warns about a missing IBAN. The sealed wage file is uploaded on Madad per HRSD.
