There is no personal income tax on employment income. The figure above assumes a Saudi national and deducts the 9.75% GOSI share; expatriate employees pay no employee GOSI, so their net equals gross. Housing, private schooling and leisure are the real costs, and they are rising as the city expands.

PPP re-prices pay for local living costs. Riyadh sets the benchmark price level; every other card's gross is derived from the shared gross benchmark and re-priced at Riyadh's prices, so every card's buying power is measured on the same price basis.
