Hi Milind

While I can't give you a definitive answer, there are a few things you should consider. 

First, is whether the salary package will ensure that you have a standard of living you are comfortable with. To help decide on this, have a look at our Cost of Living in Oman page.

I'd also suggest familiarising yourself with the business culture, regulations and working environment in the country. To get a better idea about these, have a look at Working in Oman, Doing Business in Oman and Visas for Oman.

It may be worth your while to go over if the salary package is sufficient to work over there. Having worked in another country always looks good on a CV. Have a look at our Expat Contract Negotiation article for some advice on trying to secure a better package, if you think it is necessary.

Best of luck,

Xavier
