It is great to work in Qatar, but not for everyone

As I stated above, Qatar is a great place to live and work, but it’s not for everybody. If you’re looking for excitement, then Qatar will disappoint you.

Qatar has a very strict dress code for both men and women

If you’re planning to move and work in Qatar, it is important that you understand the dress code for both men and women.

For men, this means hair should be neatly trimmed or closely shaved and kept out of eyesight. For women, it’s all about covering up. They can’t wear shorts or other revealing clothing in public places (even though some people do).

For women: loose-fitting, long-sleeved dresses or skirts and shirts that cover the shoulders and upper arms are acceptable. Shorts are not allowed in public places or at work.

Men must wear long trousers that cover their ankles, shirts with sleeves reaching up to the elbow joints and no socks (unless they’re clean). This includes sandals as well as shoes with soles over two inches thick (that means no flip-flops).

Women should not wear clothing that exposes their stomachs, cleavage or thighs; this includes short skirts or tops which show off any part of your body between your chest area all the way down below your knees.

The rules don’t stop there though; women aren’t allowed to wear makeup except for lipstick and glosses (and even then only if they’re on the younger side).

They also need to keep their nails short enough that they don’t scratch themselves while typing away at their computers all day long (especially if they’re working as an accountant).

Cost of rentals and apartments in Qatar

Before you move to work in Qatar, it’s important to know the average price of an apartment in Qatar. The average price of a three-bedroom apartment located close to your place of work or school is about Qr 3300/- per month.

If you are looking for something more spacious and have more money than time on your hands, then consider renting out your extra room (or two).

For example, if you’re looking at buying a house with four bedrooms and want one more bedroom so that guests can stay over without worrying about making space in their own homes, then this may be something worth considering!

Another way that ex-pat employees can save money on living expenses while working abroad is by sharing an apartment among themselves when they arrive at their new job location. This way they don’t have anything extra cost associated with housing since they’ll already be sharing it anyway!

Average Monthly Salary for Expat employees in Qatar

The average monthly salary for an ex-pat working in Qatar is quite high, with many taking home around qrs 17000/- per month.

However, it is important to note that because of Qatar’s many generous allowances and benefits packages will often add considerable sums to their take-home pay.

If you are planning on moving to Qatar with your family then know that the cost of living in Doha is not as high as in other locations around the world.

The cost of living is relatively low compared to other countries such as America or Europe and this makes it easier for expatriates from different countries who wish to live together in Doha without having to worry about what their daily expenses would be like once they reach their destination country.

Men are generally allowed to have up to four wives at a time

In Qatar, men are generally allowed to have up to four wives at a time. This is a reflection of the culture and religion of the country. The law does not allow for women to have multiple husbands, because they’re seen as property in their families and society.

Bottom Line

If you’re thinking about moving to Qatar, it’s important to understand that culture shock is inevitable.

There are many positive aspects of living in this country, but there are also some dangers that you should be aware of if you decide to move here.

It’s always a good practice when moving anywhere new or different to do some research on how things work before making any decisions.

There are plenty of resources available online that can help people become more informed on their own potential future lives abroad including blogs which are written by people who have lived abroad for years now and have seen all sides.
