Buying Property and Residency Eligibility in Oman

Property-owner residence visa

Oman’s official government portal states that owners of residential units in Integrated Tourism Complexes can apply for a two-year property-owner residence visa, subject to the current requirements and approval. See Gov.om.

Long-term investor residency

Official investment sources describe renewable 5- or 10-year investor residency routes, including eligible real-estate ownership. Eligibility, investment thresholds and benefits depend on the applicable route and current rules. See Invest Oman FAQs and MOCIIP.

Before you buy
