I was offered a job in Qatar and the salary offered is QR 2800 for the position of electrician. IWould like to know if it is enough to live there. I am married. I admit that I didnt discus the all package with the company(Insurance and others things). I am waiting your advice and experience;
Best regards,

You cannot survive with that much amount. In other term the salary is too low. Cost of life is very much high.

Hello Daisyta152,

Please refrain from typing in upper case since it's akin to "yelling" and " shouting"

Thank you,
Gavind.

You wont be allowed to bring family over on that wage.  You need to consider if its more than you would get a home, if it includes accommodation and utilities and food etc.  Things aren't cheap here unless your company is paying.   Also look at contract length.
