Oman just dropped its own Golden Residency visa, hoping to reel in global investors and give its business scene a glow-up. The Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Investment Promotion made the big reveal on August 31.

Two Tiers, Two Price Tags

  • Tier 1: Drop at least 500,000 OMR (around $1.3M) on real estate, investments, or a company that employs 50 Omanis. In return, you snag a 10-year renewable residency. Cost? 551 OMR.

  • Tier 2: Not ready to go that big? A 250,000 OMR buy-in gets you a 5-year renewable permit for 326 OMR.

Retirees, You’re Invited Too

If you’re already in Oman and retired, you can still qualify—just prove you’re pocketing at least 4,000 OMR per month.

How to Apply

Easy. Applications are open through the Invest Oman platform, no paper chase required.
