Merged: Cost of living @ Warsaw with monthly compensation of 15k PLN

Hey Polish Folks,

Hope you all are doing great.
While googling i came across this forum so though of joining in for clarifying my some doubts.

I have been offered a monthly salary compensation of 15PLN Gross for my job.
I have checked that there is a very high 32% of flat income tax on gross Salary in warsaw.

Can any one clarify or tell me about cost of living in warsaw, considering the fact that i am single and always prefers to live in a decent place.

I'll be traveling from india so saving money is on priority. So how much monthly it would be able to save with decent life style.

Also if some one can tell me how life style @ warsaw is different from other EU nations , or its same like dem :S i have very less idea on that :)

Hoping to hear from u guys..
Have fun :)

Catch many of u soon..

Hello Mr CMS,
No company is so fool that they'll import foreign employee by paying double salary, also as there is additional cost involved like visa and work permit.

It's been communicated to me that they are unable to find with SAP Skill which fortunately i have , which also suites their requirement. Hence they obviously needs to pay lil higher to attract people from other nations. Also considering the fact that i'll be relocating and have to pay higher income tax of around 32%. It does't seems to be sum thing over paid.

It's very much within market standards, infect too less than what other companies offer in other EU nations..


Ya Sa11y, u r absolutely right , u just need too be der at right place and right time :D :D


Hi Jon,
I will be expecting around 10.5K of monthly salary, after all tax deduction. Also was wondering if i could at least save half of my salary. But 5K seems to be enough, as am still single and nothing much to spend apart eating and lodging :D

Ya monitor, in india we have 4 Slabs of taxation. From 0%, 10%, 20% to 30%. Also this tax is on above if salary exceeds above a static income.
Higher Salary tends to higher tax.
But we have few relaxations also, it depends on your savings, investment in government owned policies/funds/insurance, housing loan and many more.
So its not really not so high.

Yeah i too just checked income tax is high in most EU nations.

By exploring Eastern europe i mean i want to visit other europe nation, jas a tourist, and a tourist visa is enough for that, which is not a big deal :D

And as far as work permit is concern , its completely depends on kind of work u do and the requirement of company , who's willing to recruit you ..
