This is really useful for me to know, i need to go back to my company with a suggestion and by the looks of it, it seems like its a no.

I have further enquired and it seems like i do get a car allowance of 1,625QAR per month. Does this change things much?

How much am i looking at for health & car insurance?

This is a permanent move by the way so i will be looking at staying in Qatar for the next 2-5 years.
