Direct answer
How much does employee work-visa processing cost through Setup in Oman?
The owner-supplied commercial package is OMR 530 per person for the stated two-year employee-processing scope, including the listed labour-permit work, immigration processing, medical, resident-card work and support. It is not a universal government-fee statement or approval promise. The employer, occupation and applicant must be reviewed first.
Decision path
Price the case only after the employment route is clear
A worker cannot be scoped independently from the sponsoring employer and occupation.
- 01
Confirm the sponsoring employer
Check the company's active records, activity and capacity to sponsor the intended role.
- 02
Define the occupation
Use the actual work and current occupation classification rather than a convenient title.
- 03
Review the applicant
Confirm identity, qualification, experience, medical and other route-specific evidence.
- 04
Itemise inclusions and extras
Separate the OMR 530 package scope from any exceptional, rework or third-party requirement.
- 05
Name completion evidence
Distinguish application, permit, entry, medical and resident-card milestones.

Customer questions
Answers to confirm before you commit
Start with these answers, then confirm what applies to your activity, people and plans in your written quotation.
Is OMR 530 the government fee?
No. It is the published commercial package for the listed professional and authority-processing scope. The quotation should identify the components and any conditional requirement.
Can any Oman company sponsor an employee?
No universal answer is safe. The employer's records, activity, occupation, workforce position and current Ministry requirements must be checked.
Does the package include recruitment?
No. It is an employee-processing service for a sponsoring employer and identified applicant; it is not job placement or recruitment.
What happens if the authority requests different evidence?
The quotation should define rework, additional documents, third-party costs, refusal and cancellation treatment before payment.
