Do GCC nationals have to be registered with GPSSA?
All GCC nationals working in the UAE must be registered with GPSSA. Please note that all GCC nationals are covered by the pension authority/fund in their home country. Further, whilst monthly contributions will be paid by an employer, they will be paid into the employee's local pension fund/authority.
