๐ธ๐ฆ Saudi Arabia
Riyadh ยท 2026-09-28
Capital location. General national rules are used where applicable; this is not a national average.
Intelligence Hours IndexNo general statutory minimum wage applies to this jurisdiction.
Saudi Arabia does not have one general statutory minimum covering all private-sector workers. SAR 4,000 per month is the threshold for fully counting a Saudi employee in Nitaqat; it is not a universal wage floor for Saudi and migrant workers.
A single minimum-wage work-time figure would misrepresent this system, so this location is excluded from the ranking.
The same AI subscription benchmark costs $20 per month, before taxes.

The current HRSD Nitaqat notice counts Saudi workers paid SAR 4,000 as one worker and SAR 3,000 to below 4,000 as half. Labour Law Articles 89 and 95 provide for establishing a minimum and determining contractual/customary pay without specifying a universal amount. Read with the ILO national-versus-migrant coverage classification; the older ILO SAR 3,000 Nitaqat threshold is superseded by the current HRSD notice.
