Ownership and activity eligibility
Foreign ownership is an activity-level question—not a universal slogan.
Oman’s foreign-investment framework can permit full foreign ownership, while specific activities, sectors, approvals and operating conditions can still change the route. Check the exact activity before selecting a structure or package.
No approval guarantees. No sensitive documents in the first message.
Clarity standard
Conditions, responsibilities and completion stages are stated separately.

Ask these questions in order
- 01
What is the exact activity?
Use the intended revenue-generating activity, not only a broad label such as trading or consulting.
- 02
Who are the owners?
Confirm whether the shareholder is an individual or corporate entity and where supporting documents were issued.
- 03
Is a sector approval involved?
Identify any regulator, professional licence or activity-specific condition before filing.
- 04
What premises are required?
Test whether the activity needs a physical operating location, equipment or inspections.
- 05
What follows registration?
Map labour, banking, tax, customs or residence workstreams separately.
No capital shortcut
A general rule does not replace activity-specific review.
Official MoCIIP information explains the removal of a general minimum foreign-investment capital requirement under the framework it describes, while sector and activity conditions may still apply. Confirm the current rule for the intended activity.
