I am Audio Visual Engineer(Project Enggineer).

I offered 8500QR per month (Negotiate to 9000QR)from company in doha?

This salary includes Housing,Transport,Furniture allowance.

My status is Married.

Is this amount is OK for staying in DOHA for family(2 person)?

OR how much minimum salary should I have to stay in DOHA with family?

And how much is rent of 1 Room & Kitchen in DOHA?

You cant live with that offer in Doha.

With 3 kids, your basic must be 6-10 thousand QAR. And separate housing, transport, medical and kids education. Not to mention, yearly airfare.

One room-kitchen: 2.5-3.5 thousand QAR.

Find another employer.

Tell whoever is recruiting you to live on that salary.

If you can get full housing on top of that, it still is roughing it but survivable.

depends upon ur life-style. if this package is "all inclusive" as U hv mentioned; think again to come over - qatar is an expensive place to live. 1 room apartment rent starts fm QR 4K onwards. good luck!
