Oman offers a long term investor residency, sometimes called its Golden Visa, relaunched in 2025 through the official Invest Oman platform with residency issued by the Royal Oman Police. Lebanese nationals can apply on the standard basis. This page sets out the current position so you can plan.
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.
Lebanese nationals are eligible. The investor residency is open to foreign investors generally, so Lebanese citizens apply on the same terms as others. Approval rests on a qualifying investment and standard checks, not on nationality.
Applicants need a valid passport, evidence of the qualifying investment and supporting documents. Confirm the live requirements with Invest Oman.
The headline route is the purchase of freehold residential property in an approved development, known as an Integrated Tourism Complex, where foreign nationals may own outright. Two tiers apply, a higher one for a longer permit and a lower one for a shorter permit. Other investment routes may also qualify. Confirm the live routes and approved developments with the official authority before committing any money.
The two tiers offer renewable permits, commonly reported as a longer term for the higher investment and a shorter term for the lower investment. Both can usually include a spouse and children. Confirm current permit lengths and processing with Invest Oman.
The figures below are indicative thresholds in Omani Rial. They are investment amounts, with fees on top. Confirm the current minimums and any holding rules with the official authority.
| Item | Indicative amount | Notes |

| Higher tier property | From OMR 500,000 | Reported to support a longer renewable residency. Confirm the current figure and term |
