You can apply for a Hamad Medical card for all medical expenses at the state hospital once you have your RP's. Their care is very good especially with emergency situations and it will be free.

Also there are some nice medical and dental centres that offer a card for say QR350 to QR400 which allows unlimited dental and medical consultations for a year, you will just have to pay for the procedures and medications. Try and get an extra insurance cover for big emergencies/operations if you can.

I have no idea about the job offered but it seems quite ok as 13k plus 2 bed flat is almost 20k.

It all depends on your lifestyle!

This package seems to be OK to have a normal lifestyle.

Car, Accommodation and air tickets are the three major expenses while living in Qatar. Those being taken care of, you are good.

Try to get family medical insurance, if possible.

Pretty Decent Salary for luxurious living, as housing and transport is taken care.

There is not much place to spend around except for few malls unlike Dubai.

You can save a decent amount.

As they provide the flat and the car, you will be okay. Keep your baby at home, otherwise you must consider 1.500 to 2.500 for a kindergarten place.
