The Oman Golden Visa (10-year Tier 1 Residency) is a premium long-term permit designed for high-net-worth individuals seeking self-sponsorship and 100% foreign ownership in the Sultanate. To qualify for the 10-year renewable residency, applicants must make a minimum investment of OMR 200,000 through several pathways, including purchasing freehold property in Integrated Tourism Complexes (ITCs), holding government bonds, or establishing a company that employs at least 50 Omani nationals.
This residency program offers unmatched flexibility, allowing holders to stay outside Oman for over six months without losing their status, while providing family sponsorship for spouses and children without age restrictions. Key benefits include fast-track airport lanes, the right to own a residential property outside ITC zones, and a streamlined path to opening premium bank accounts, making it one of the most competitive investor visa options in the GCC.
