TRY to SAR salary comparison

What a ₺1,200,021 salary in Istanbul is worth in Riyadh?

After income tax and social contributions, ₺1,200,021 gross leaves ₺803,697 in Istanbul. The same gross salary, converted at today's rate, is SAR 90,086 in Riyadh, where take-home is SAR 81,303 and annual savings after typical living costs reach SAR 0. Once local price levels are taken into account, that pay buys about 24% less in Riyadh than in Istanbul.

Istanbul, Türkiye

Income tax rises from 15% to 40% after SGK contributions, with a stamp duty on gross pay. Inflation has reshaped real wages year after year and central rents have surged, so a salary that looked generous when signed can feel ordinary by the next review.

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

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.
