Salario mínimo (bruto)
Fuente: UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE) · vigente desde 1 ene 2026
UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE)The UAE has NO national statutory minimum wage covering most adult full-time workers. Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 (Labour Law) only requires salaries be sufficient for basic needs and does not set a general minimum; WageIndicator confirms no minimum salary is stipulated in the Federal Labour Law. Expatriates make up roughly 88-90% of the workforce and have no statutory minimum (only non-binding visa salary benchmarks, e.g. ~AED 12,000/month for university graduates). The ONLY statutory wage floor is the reference rate reported here: AED 6,000/month, applying EXCLUSIVELY to Emirati (UAE national) citizens employed in the private sector, effective 1 January 2026 (raised from AED 5,000; employers must adjust existing Emirati salaries by 30 June 2026). This is a nationality/category-based minimum, not a universal one. weekly_hours_used=48 reflects the UAE statutory standard (8 hrs/day, 48 hrs/week); no hourly conversion was computed. Corroborated by KPMG GMS Flash Alert 2026-006, Time Out Dubai, VisaHQ, and WageIndicator.org.
