It depends on your lifestyle basically. If you are a family of 3 or 4 and you are the sole bread winner, this number will help you to scrape through the month taking into account the levy, expenses and so on.

If you are really frugal, you could end up saving also.

As mentioned above.

On an overall perspective, it is considered a low salary inside Saudi. For example, maids, in a good household can make anywhere from 2000-2500 and are provided with accommodation, medical, food etc. You are a white collar and probably have good education to be able to qualify for a teacher role.

Please don’t opt for it as the living cost in Saudia Arab has sky rocketed. Try to get at least 25k plus if you have an experience of 10-12 plus years.

Thanks
