Appreciate your reply, but before posting this question I read other threads. All of them has a common reply. That living cost depends on you.
Thats why I posted with conditions. So that I can get a clear idea.

That was an awesome video. Thanks again. By the way are you an indian. If yes, do you think i should accept this offer. I am a software Enginner(fresher).

And one more thing. What is the average salary increment in dubai per year.


sorry just saw indian flag.

5K per month is not adequate to have a decent life.  Are you joining as an office assistant or something, it is not worth it.

No, i am joining as a fresher software developer. and i am 23yrs old.

Hello everyone,

I got a job in Dubai.salary is 5.5k UAE.just want to now the expenses incurred in staying in 3room shared appartment per month and monthly food expenses for decent living.kindly let me now the answer,so that I can plan my stay according to that.

If you are willing to share accommodation, find a shared car lift, cook at home... 5k will be just fine for one person but for 3 people? I doubt it.

You are a fresh graduate, 5 k is ok for a start, come here get some experience and in a year or 2 you can bring ur family here too. Goodluck

Ravi, I think by now you must have moved to Dubai. Can you please let me know the expenses exactly as you asked for ?
