Need Guidance
By PRS Prasad •
I have an offer for QR.7500 excluding accommodation, car, medical etc. I am living in KSA for last 15 years for a salary less than that, but my wife is a working lady here. Please guide me if the above salary is enough to survive for my family which is consisting of wife and 4 year old daughter.
One good point is your accomodation is free .But check what type of accomodation it is from the company .
Your expenses would be 2500-3000 QAR for grocery for a family of 2 1/2 persons monthly plus Tel QAR 250 monthly plus medical QAR 100-200 per month plus E+W =QAR 250 per month .
Effectively you may save QAR 3000 if you live really tight without any shopping or much dinner outings.
To Join or Not -you decide based on above , as Qatar is 2.5 times expensive than KSA .
You did not mention about your qualification and the position you are holding in Saudi Arabia. The remuneration package is depending on your qualification and experience. Qr. 7500/- is not bad for a bachelor but with a family it will be bit difficult to survive. Cost of living in Qatar is quite high now a days and if your company can provide you accommodation or an extra allowance then it will be ok. Please note that even if you can find a cheaper accommodation somewhere in Qatar it will not be less than Qr. 4000/- to 4500/-. Then you should think about other expenses like food, school, Water & Electricity, transportation etc. for which you need a similar amount. If you are planning to live with your family the Salary of Qr. 7500/- will not be enough to meet the growing cost of living in Qatar.
Dear pls note Qatar compare to Saudia too much costly accomodation only one room rent per month +3000 thousand and medical also plus schooling u cant imagin habibi first check with ur closed friend ...........Best of luck
This is nothing........ U have to get minimum QR 25000.00, otherwise u cannot maintain ur life ofcoz...
Friend u know onething... Here is lots of people working with a salary of QR600.00 QR800.00 like that.... They are simply managing their life here also they are willing to maintain their family who all staying their native place.
So be happy with what we are getting now and thank GOD thousand times......
it depends on u
