Hi. I have been offered a job in abu dhabi. 17000AED a month salary. On top of this i get medical aid. Life insurance. And an incentive after a year. My relocation travel and shipping has also been provided. My main concern is the rent in abu dhabi. A friend and I want to share a place. Will 6000AED a minth be enough to share a place and still live a comfy life?

Hi thank you for the reply. Yes i am single. So it will be good? I have no children. So to maintain a live every month for 17000AED will be ok?

You can, but you can't live like a rockstar with that salary. But it is sufficient enough. You will get an idea about the expenses once you start living. Best of luck and welcome to Abu Dhabi
