Eligibility for Egyptian nationals

Oman opened its Golden Residency programme to qualifying foreign investors and research does not show a nationality bar for Egyptian citizens. Eligibility rests on the size and type of the investment and on meeting the conditions for the chosen permit length.

The programme is administered through Invest Oman, with residency permits issued by the Royal Oman Police. Confirm the current document list and family rules with the official authority before acting.

Routes

The programme launched on 31 August 2025 and offers renewable five year and ten year residency permits across several investment routes. Reported routes include investment into a company, the purchase of real estate at a qualifying value, and job creating investments that employ Omani nationals.

Reported figures for each route vary across sources, so the qualifying amounts should be confirmed directly with the authority rather than relied on from secondary summaries.

Timeline

Applications are handled through a digital platform, and permits are issued for five or ten years and renewed while the qualifying conditions continue to be met. Confirm the present handling time with the official authority.

Costs

Beyond the qualifying investment, applicants meet government application and permit fees and local professional costs. Confirm the current fees with the official authority.

How long is the residency valid?

The programme is reported to offer renewable five year and ten year permits, with the length depending on the route and amount. Confirm the current terms with the authority.

Does Oman residency lead to citizenship?
