Many professionals considering moving from United Arab Emirates to Bulgaria often overlook the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) difference. While a salary in Bulgaria might look lower on paper, the cost of living could make it worth more.
Understanding the real value of your income is crucial when negotiating a remote salary or planning a relocation. This calculator helps you determine the equivalent salary you would need in Bulgaria to maintain your current standard of living in United Arab Emirates.
Based on PPP data, the price level in Bulgaria is approximately 0.40x that of United Arab Emirates. This means your money goes further in Bulgaria.
