The average salary for nurses in Qatar is $33,000. But there are many factors that can impact your salary as a nurse in this country.
The first thing to consider is your education. The more training you have, the higher your salary will be. For example, an entry-level nurse in Qatar earns around $27,000 per year. If you have a bachelor’s degree in nursing and two years of experience working as a nurse, you can expect to earn about $32,000 per year. With a master’s degree and three years of experience as a registered nurse (RN), you can expect to earn approximately $38,000 per year.
Another factor that impacts your income as a nurse in Qatar is where you work. Hospitals pay more than private clinics or community health centers do—and so do government jobs versus jobs with private companies or institutions like universities or nonprofits.”
