After the change to an interim government in late 2024 and the lifting of many international sanctions, the country is working hard to become a centre for investment in agriculture and industry. But the Economic Reset comes with a new set of laws.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The New Wage Floor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The currency reform on January 1, 2026, is one of the most important updates for any investor. Syria changed the value of its currency by 100 times in Presidential Decree No. 293 of 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minimum Wage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting in January 2026, the law says that the private sector must pay at least 7,500 Syrian Pounds (SYP) per month. This was changed from the old SYP level of 750,000 in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The National Directive<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The minimum wage is a legal floor, but the Ministry of Economy and Industry has been pushing the private sector to match the 200% raises that public sector employees just got to boost domestic demand. To stay competitive and in line with the spirit of the Economic Reset, investors should plan to pay wages that are much higher than the minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contracts And The 7-Day Rule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Contracts are the main way that <a href=\"https:\/\/syriacapitalpartners.com\/blog\/is-there-skilled-labour-shortage-in-solar-sector\/\">Syrian labour law<\/a> protects workers. The following rules apply whether you hire local talent or foreign experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Probationary Periods<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The law says that the longest probation period can be three months. During this time, either party can end the relationship with little trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fixed-Term vs. Indefinite<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you break a fixed-term contract early, the employer usually has to pay you for the rest of the contract period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Notice Periods<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the terms of the contract and how long the employee has been with the company, a notice period of up to three months is required for standard terminations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiring Foreign Nationals: Rules And Limits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The government wants <a href=\"https:\/\/syriacapitalpartners.com\/blog\/understanding-syrian-investment-authoritys-role-for-foreign-companies\/\">foreign investment<\/a>, but labour laws still put the local workforce first. When foreign investors want to hire people from other countries, they have to deal with certain problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Required Work Permits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs must give all foreign nationals a work permit. Usually, these are good for a year and are linked to a certain job title and employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Skills Gap Justification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>To hire someone from another country, an employer usually has to show that the job needs a specific set of skills that aren&#8217;t easy to find in the local Syrian job market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Repatriation Guarantees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2026, new investment laws made it easier for foreign investors and employees to send a large part of their profits and salaries abroad in foreign currency. This is a big change from the previous decades when capital was controlled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tax Reform 2026: A Simplified Landscape<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As of early 2026, the old, fragmented, fee-heavy tax regime has been replaced by a unified code. This is a huge help for departments that deal with compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Aspect<\/td><td>2026 Regulation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Personal Income Tax (PIT)<\/strong><\/td><td>First 60M SYP\/year (approx. $5,200) is exempt.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Wage Tax Rate<\/strong><\/td><td>6% on the first 5M SYP of taxable income; 8% above that.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Corporate Tax (Priority)<\/strong><\/td><td>10% for industry, tech, healthcare and education.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Corporate Tax (Standard)<\/strong><\/td><td>15% for all other non-priority sectors.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;discretionary committees&#8221; that used to decide how much tax you owed are no longer in the 2026 tax code. Instead, the system has gone to digital self-declaration and specialised tax courts, which have cut down on the &#8220;hidden costs&#8221; of doing business in Syria by a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leave And Benefits: The Statutory Minimums<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Minimum Requirements by Law, Syria&#8217;s labour code, make it clear what mandatory benefits must be included in any total rewards strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Paid Time Off<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Employees must get at least 14 days of paid time off each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sick Leave<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The system is surprisingly strong. Workers get the first 90 days at 70% of their pay and then another 90 days at 80%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Maternity Leave<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Female workers get 120 days of paid maternity leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Security<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>All full-time employees must sign up for the national social security program. Contributions pay for pensions for people over 65, disabilities and injuries at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resolving Disputes: Local vs. International<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The change in how disputes are settled may be the most important one for investors in 2026. New investment rules let foreign companies choose arbitration as a way to settle disputes with the state or its workers. Investors can often choose local or even international arbitrators, which adds a level of legal protection that wasn&#8217;t available before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advice for Investors on Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2026, the Syrian job market will have low wages but a high need for skilled reintegration. Many workers are coming back from the diaspora with advanced skills, but they may need &#8220;bridge&#8221; training to get used to the new digital systems the Ministry is putting in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investing in Industrial Cities, such as Hassia, Sheikh Najjar or Adra, is the best choice because these areas offer &#8220;one-stop-shop&#8221; administrative services that handle everything from labour permits to tax registrations to utility connections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For foreign investors who are interested in the Levant, Syria in 2026 will look very different from how it does now.
