Hello All,

I am an IT professional with about 7.5 yrs of experience.

I am currently in the process of receiving a job offer from a company in Hague, Netherlands. I would like to know what is the gross/net salary that I should be expecting to have a good standard of living in Hague. We are a family of 2 as of now, me and my wife.

Also, what is the average cost of living for 2 people in Hague?

Thanks in advance.

I do agree with Natalija, it is very difficult to say and as clear cut as you may expect it to be. Some companies have more budget than others...

I agree with you.

However, I want to know what would be a good salary figure to consider an option of relocating to Netherlands.
