Oman offers renewable investor residency permits to qualifying foreign nationals, including citizens of the Philippines. This page explains the routes, the indicative thresholds and where to confirm the current position.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Filipino citizens are not excluded from Oman investor residency. Eligibility turns on which qualifying route you meet rather than on nationality, so a Filipino applicant is assessed against the same published criteria as other foreign applicants.
Applications are subject to security and background checks. Confirm the documents and attestations that apply to your case with the official authority before you commit funds.
Oman has built its long term residency around investment. The most widely used route is property ownership at a qualifying value, which can lead to a five year or a 10 year renewable permit depending on the amount invested. Investor and business routes also exist for those who place capital in an Omani company or licensed project.
Each route carries its own evidence requirements. Check which one fits your situation with the authority, since the framework was updated recently and figures can change.
Processing time depends on the route and the completeness of your file. Confirm the current expected timeline with the official authority.
Investment thresholds, government fees and renewal charges are set by the authority and can change. The figures below are indicative only and should be verified before you act.
See the questions below.
| Route | Indicative threshold | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Property, 10 year permit | Around OMR 500,000 | Qualifying property ownership at the higher value band |
| Property, five year permit | Around OMR 250,000 | Qualifying property ownership at the lower value band |
