Grade G5 at NATO in Belgium pays from EUR 3,807 a month, basic, first step.
No. NATO sets grade G5 separately for each duty station, and publishes each country's scale in that country's own currency, so the figures are not a single range. The table on this page states each one as published.
The figures on this page are quoted basic, first step, per month, in EUR.
These figures come from the NATO scale for effective 1 February 2026, as published by NATO. We last read that source and confirmed these figures on 20 August 2026.
NATO publishes these twelve countries at this source. Posts in France, Estonia, Ukraine, Canada and Kosovo are on scales NATO does not publish here, so no figure is shown for them rather than a figure borrowed from another country.
NATO is one of the six Co-ordinated Organisations, which adjust pay by a shared method rather than a shared scale — so grade G5 here has no counterpart at another of the six. How Co-ordinated Organisation pay works.
This is not a UN common-system salary. NATO sets its own pay, so there is no post adjustment and no ICSC scale behind this grade — it cannot be compared with a P-4 or a GS-6 without accounting for the difference in basis.
