Education expense and housing cost in Muscat

Post new topic

shimmyrk

Hi,

We are a family of 4 (including 2 kids) from Bangalore and have received an offer for a position in Muscat. Since we are very new to Oman/Muscat, wanted to know the following.

1. What is the education expense for a KG and 1st standard going kids, inclusive of the transportation for a decent (with good reputation)school ?

2. What could be the rent for a 2BHK furnished apartment? What would be the difference in rent if it is not furnished.

3. What could be the other cost of living (Grocery, Electricity, Water, Garbage, Internet etc)

Hope someone will be able to shed some light!!

Regards
Shimmy
