Hi friends
Which country is better to stay as expat kuwait or oman ,over all work bife balance is good in kuwait  or oman?

Michael pulla

Oman is considered as the best in GCC. But if you are married, and want to live with your wife, she will not be allowed to work in oman. Besides, you need check the salary comparison properly based on exchange rate prior to accepting. Generally speaking, oman shall not offer any job for expat if there is Omani available.

If you want money choose Kuwait but if you want to relax and less work choose Oman.

Thanks Michel and moo :))

I would consider three things: overall saving potential, kids education and safety.

If you are seriously expecting something like job security, work life balance, respect etc for expats in Middle East, you may need psychological advise.

Can I ask what type of work you do in Kuwait? I would say to stay in Kuwait.
