Doha Salary, Cost of Living

Salary what i am getting in london (sans taxes) is just about the same in qatar. I understand the accommodation is a family accommodation and i am being called for an interview to doha sometime next week.

I was given to understand things like electricity, internet, phones are paid for by the employer and i would have to just spend for food, entertainment.

What all to lookout for, ask the employer? Elsewhere in this forum i read about family allowance, is this a standard? and generally how is life in qatar? saving potential?

What are things involved when relocating for work outside UK? do i need to inform the inland revenue office? banks? postoffice?

Web Developer,

Is USD2000 better than what you're getting in London?

A car isn't standard in contracts. It depends on where you work. But being in IT, it usually isn't.

In terms of Household expenses, visit http://lifeonthespot.com/blog/qatar/cost_of_living/ to see a list of groceries and their cost in Qatari rials and compare them to the cost in the UK.

Chris
