Frequently Asked Questions About Payroll & WPS Services in UAE (FAQ)
What is WPS and is it mandatory in UAE?
The Wage Protection System (WPS) is an electronic salary transfer system operated by the UAE Central Bank. It is mandatory for all private sector employers in the UAE to pay employee salaries through WPS. Non-compliance can result in fines, license suspension, and visa bans from MOHRE.
What is a SIF file?
A SIF (Salary Information File) is a standardised file format required by the UAE Central Bank for WPS salary submissions. It contains details of each employee’s salary payment. RAFA Alliance generates and submits your SIF file every month as part of our payroll service.
What happens if I miss a WPS submission?
Missing a WPS submission is a serious compliance violation. MOHRE can impose fines starting from AED 1,000 per employee, freeze new work permit applications, and in repeat cases suspend your trade license. We ensure your WPS submissions are never missed.
Can you handle payroll for free zone companies?
Yes. We handle payroll and WPS compliance for mainland companies, free zone companies, and branches across all UAE emirates regardless of which free zone you are registered under.
How do you calculate end of service gratuity?
UAE Labour Law requires employers to pay end of service gratuity to employees who complete one or more years of service. The calculation is based on basic salary, years of service, and type of contract. RAFA Alliance calculates gratuity accurately for every leaver as part of our payroll service.
Do you process payroll for part-time and contract staff?
Yes. We process payroll for all employment types full-time, part-time, contract, and daily rated staff ensuring correct calculations and compliant WPS submissions for every category.
