Oman to launch golden visa program with digital trade reforms is set to reshape the countryโs investment climate. The initiative, scheduled for August 31, 2025, aims to attract foreign investors by granting long-term residency.
The programme provides renewable 5- or 10-year residency to investors and their families. This includes spouses, children under 25, and dependent parentsโall without needing a local sponsor. This ease of access marks a significant shift in policy.
At a launch event in Salalah under the patronage of Dhofarโs governor, Oman to launch golden visa program with digital trade reforms was unveiled along with key trade modernisation measures.
Alongside the visa, Oman will introduce the Al Majida Companies initiative. It supports high-performing Omani firms with incentives to expand locally and globally.
In addition, a new digital service will allow electronic transfer of commercial registrations through the โOman Businessโ platform. This step is part of broader efforts to build a fully digital trade ecosystem.
Officials say Oman to launch golden visa program with digital trade reforms will create greater stability for investors. It also makes trade more transparent and efficient.
These reforms align with Omanโs Vision 2040 strategy. The goal is to diversify the economy away from oil dependence and develop new sectors like tourism, IT, and renewable energy.
By streamlining business registration and enabling long-term residency, Oman aims to stand out as a global investment hub. The move mirrors similar steps by other Gulf nations but is tailored to support domestic entrepreneurship too.
