Dawmo 2026.9 is out — rendered payslips, a public API and calendar feeds. See what changed
What the Kuwait pack covers, what Dawmo does about each part of it, and the rules we are willing to state in writing, each with its source and the month it was last checked.
Rules change. A pack version does not lie about which ones were in force when a payroll ran.
Wage protection
A wage protection file through the manpower authority
Social insurance
PIFSS for Kuwaiti nationals, in a basic and a supplementary tier
End of service
End-of-service indemnity: 15 days a year for five years, then a month a year, capped at 18 months
Nationalisation
Kuwaitisation ratios in some sectors
Calendar & working week
Friday–Saturday weekend
A generic HR tool

This describes how Dawmo handles these rules. It is not legal advice and does not replace your own advisers, particularly where your contracts, entity structure or sector change the answer.
Bring last month’s payroll and we will run it through Dawmo on the call, with your own country pack in force.
