Why establish a business in Oman?

The country permits 100% foreign ownership in most sectors. The tax environment here is also favourable, featuring a 15% corporate tax rate, a low 5% value added tax (VAT), and no personal income tax.

As part of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Oman provides businesses with the advantage of free movement of goods across the region. This can make Oman a suitable starting point to tap into local opportunities and smoothly branch out into other markets.
