Jack541 welcome to Expat.com. If your company will not provide you transport its okay no problem, but housing maybe cost around 12-17 thousand Riyal for 6 months if you find a flat near to your samba office than it mite save your transport, maybe just a walking distance from your office.

Srikanth it depends on you & your family for monthly expense, and for most you can save good sort of amount.

Hi Srikanth,

This package as per Indian Standard is quite decent. For a small family monthly expeditures are normally around 2.5k and rest all are the saving, considering that the accomodation and transportaion is taken care by the company.

For any other info required, pls revert

regards
