good enough but it depends on your work experience and type of job, some guys ask for more, why take a 4000 riyals flat if your salary is not big enough, be practical....

and what is annual ticket travel allowance? they dont provide annual tickets for u and ur family? If no tickets , just check your ticket rates from Doha to ur country...

house allowance is very low...save 9000? dont think so! a descent 1bhk apartment in qatar costs 4000 Riyals min.Then u need to pay for water,electricity, telephone etc. Living expenses in qatar is pretty high.But yes u can get family visa.Transporatation, u will need to buy a car for sure. So u will need to plan budget for that accordingly. But, uri wouldnt say ur offer is bad. Its a normal man's salary in qatar.

If you are a Southeast Asian, this is already a good offer however, if you are a Westerner, this is peanuts.

But it's a good offer though
