Hi Deepu,

When you say all inclusive do you mean you are also getting an accommodation allowance? Accommodation will be you biggest expense and you should budget at least SAR 4,000 for a 2-bedroom apartment in Saudi Arabia.

Transport is cheap in Saudi Arabia because of the price of petrol is low and the cost of groceries is probably about average. 

You can check out the page of Cost of Living in Saudi Arabia.

I think you will be able to survive on this salary, but it depends how many people you are supporting and the kind of lifestyle you wish to have.

Kind regards

Shantalie

If accommodation is already covered. I think SAR 11,000 to support yourself is fine. But you need to consider the lifestyle you wish to have and how much you are already earning.

Good luck
