Offer from Kuwait

17 years ago

Hi,

I work in Abu Dhabi (UAE) and have been recently offered a job in Kuwait by a leading bank in the country, I am confused and dont know what aspects should I take in mind before accepting the offer which is approx 1600 KD will this amount be enough to support myself and my family (wife & 6 month baby) I clearly have no idea of Kuwait, therefore I have unending questions,
- What should I be looking at in terms of renting a 2 BR apartment
- Are telephone communication expensive, heard they charge you for receiving calls on you cell
- Is purchasing electronics an expensive affair in Kuwait
- Does visa and other related documents take long to get processed
- Does UAE driving license get converted to Kuwaiti license
- Cost of transportation

I hope I can get some information on these questions before I take the decision

Regards

Asim
