Sultanate of Oman · Ministry of Commerce, Industry & Investment Promotion
A ten-year, renewable residency for investors who choose Oman — launched 31 August 2025 in support of Oman Vision 2040's diversified, sustainable economy.
Overview
Oman's Golden Residency was introduced by the Ministry of Commerce, Industry, and Investment Promotion to strengthen the Sultanate's standing as a secure destination for foreign capital, and to draw in the global talent behind it. It sits within Oman Vision 2040's push toward a diversified, competitive, sustainable economy.
Qualifying investors are granted residency for ten years, renewable, against a minimum total commitment of OMR 200,000. That commitment can sit entirely in one route, or be built by combining several — real estate, a company, government bonds, listed securities, a fixed deposit, or Omani employment — whichever fits how the investor already holds capital.
Muscat Auditing and Accounting Services advises investors and companies through eligibility, documentation, and audited financials at every stage of the application.
