Pensions in the UAE for UAE and GCC nationals

Governments of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states – Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates – have implemented state pension schemes for the benefit of their employed citizens. In the UAE, pension provision is governed by the Federal Pensions and Social Security Law No.7 of 1999 and enforced by the General Pensions & Social Security Authority (GPSSA). It applies equally throughout the UAE (Excluding Abu Dhabi) to all employers, including the various free zones, and mandates that all eligible employees – UAE or GCC nationals – must be registered with the GPSSA within the first month following the commencement of their employment.

In Abu Dhabi, the Abu Dhabi Retirement Pensions and Benefits Fund manages pensions on behalf of Abu Dhabi-based and employed UAE nationals. However, it does not oversee pensions for GCC nationals; this responsibility lies with GPSSA. The emirate of Abu Dhabi has a separate pension law; Law No. 2 of 2000 regarding Civil Retirement Pensions and Benefits in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

Registration is a mandatory requirement for both GCC and eligible UAE nationals working in the UAE. PRO Partner Group has extensive experience in dealing with the GPSSA and can assist clients in all matters concerning the pension schemes of their UAE or GCC national employees. This includes registering client entities with the GPSSA as well as their employee's registration.
