Hi, i have been offered a top management position at a fintech company in Bahrain with a monthly CTC of 3000 BHD (includes travel and house allowance). Apart from this flight tickets, visa (for me and my wife) and medical is included. I will be moving with my wife (no kids).

I tried searching for monthly living expenses in Bahrain but could not find any recent data. It would really help if I can get some estimated monthly cost (assuming we get a full furnished 2bhk at a decent location).

@vrishi you have to spend 300BD for a flat, monthly expenses will be around 350BD including electricity bills, gas, grocery items etc. If you have a car then  100 BD for fuel. If you have kids, then school fees are around 100 BD /month, and transport is extra. I think I have covered almost all areas.
