What UAE teams actually need on day one.

Payroll in the UAE runs under Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021, and salaries move through the Wage Protection System via approved banking channels. Below is where SUVIO stands today, marked honestly.

WPS salary file export On the roadmap

Salary Information File output from a completed payroll run, formatted for submission through your bank. Ask us for the current timeline on your demo call.

Gratuity and end of service On the roadmap

End of service benefit calculated from tenure and last drawn basic, applied at separation rather than as a monthly payroll line.

Visa and labour card expiry tracking

Visa number, visa expiry, work permit number and work permit expiry sit on the employee record, with expiry alerting on uploaded documents.

Geofenced site attendance

Set a GPS radius around each site. Check ins outside the boundary are rejected at the point of capture, not argued about at month end.

Biometric device integration

Fingerprint and face devices already on site push records into SUVIO, so office staff and site labour land in the same attendance sheet.

Salary structures you define

Basic, housing, transport, allowances and deductions are rules you write, each one able to reference the result of the rule above it.

Most UAE payroll pain is not the maths, it is the inputs.

By the time salaries are calculated, the damage is usually already done. Site attendance came in on a WhatsApp photo of a register. Two labourers on the Al Quoz project were marked present by a supervisor who was not there. Overtime was estimated. Somebody in accounts is now reconciling three sources at eleven at night, four days before the wage file has to move.

SUVIO attacks that upstream. Attendance is captured against a GPS boundary drawn around each site, or pulled from the biometric device already sitting at the entrance. Approved leave writes itself back into the attendance sheet instead of arriving as a separate email. Loan installments are already scheduled, so the deduction is not remembered, it is applied.

By the time the payroll run opens, the numbers going in are the numbers that actually happened. That is the part most systems skip and most finance teams pay for.

Multiple entities, free zones and mainland, one login.

Very few UAE groups are one company. There is a mainland LLC, something in a free zone, maybe a branch in Sharjah and a project office in Abu Dhabi. Each one has its own trade licence, its own bank, and often its own working week.

SUVIO treats companies as first class. One user account can hold access to several companies and switch between them, while every record stays scoped to the entity it belongs to. Currency, country and timezone are set per company, so a Dubai entity and a Karachi back office can sit side by side without one contaminating the other.

Permissions go a layer deeper. Access is granted by scope, not just by role. A project manager can be limited to their own location, a department head to their own department, a line manager to their own subordinates. HR sees the group. Nobody sees more than they should.

The expiry dates that quietly become fines.

An expat workforce runs on dates. Visa expiry, labour card expiry, passport validity, contract end. Miss one and the cost is not just the renewal fee, it is the employee who cannot legally work on Sunday morning.

Every employee record in SUVIO carries nationality, visa number, visa expiry, work permit number and work permit expiry as structured fields, not as a note in a comment box. Uploaded documents carry their own expiry with alerting attached, so the passport scan is not the only place the date lives.

The point is boring and that is the point. Nobody should be discovering a renewal in the week it lapses.

Bring a month of real attendance and one payroll cycle. Thirty minutes is usually enough to tell whether this fits.
