In-Country Value Calculator
Estimate your ICV score from the same building blocks the official certificate uses — local spend, Emiratisation, expatriate cost, investment and bonuses. Figures should come from your audited financial statements.
1 Total cost base
The denominator: all costs for the year — goods, services and manpower, whether sourced inside or outside the UAE.
2 Local goods & third-party spend
Each supplier line counts as spend × that supplier's own ICV%. Purchases from UAE manufacturers count at 100%; vendors with no ICV certificate count at 0%.
3 Manpower
Emirati cost counts at 100%; expatriate cost counts at 60% (the 0.6 weighting).
4 Investment
Annual depreciation/amortisation of UAE-based assets (property, plant, equipment, software, etc.). Counts at 100% in the numerator.
5 Bonuses added on top · capped
Extra points awarded by MoIAT. Enter your estimated points per category (each capped) — these are added to the base score.
