Satish,

Please find below the numbers as requested;

Rent - 2 BHK (Small Size) - Qrs. 7500/-

Car Rental - Qrs. 1800 to Qrs. 2000/-

Fuel - QRs. 200/- Approx.

School Fees, Transport etc : Qrs. 700/- to Qrs. 900/-

I presume, you are negotiating a package with a company in Qatar. If yes, let them provide you facilities and ask for a handsome Basic pay to be remitted to your bank account every month. Wish you good luck.

Satish, I think if you do a search you'll find lots of answers to your questions. It totally depends on your spending habits, where you want to live and what you want to drive. For example, a 2 bedroom flat will cost you anything from QR7500 up to QR16500. If you decide to rent a car you'll pay around QR1800 for a small salon. Foodwise you'll pay around QR1000 per week (or more if you like to indulge).
