About Oman
Whether your company is sending employees to Oman or expanding your worldwide footprint—Fragomen is here to help. Our experienced immigration professionals partner with businesses of all sizes to develop immigration strategies that can help you achieve your goals.
- Oman's immigration system is driven by its nationalization program, which can limit options for employers of foreign nationals.
- Business visitors, high-level professionals, and visitors participating in festivals and conventions may obtain a single-entry Express Visa for a stay of up to three weeks, following a local sponsor in Oman’s request (an online process). Business visitors can also apply for this visa category at an Omani consular post.
- Short-term employment visas with a validity of four, six, and nine months (non-renewable) are available to select employers (mainly large corporations) with a Green Card from the Ministry of Labor. The process and documentary requirements for this visa category are similar to the normal employment visa process and the sponsoring entity must comply with the respective Omanisation ratios.
- Long-term employment visas are issued with a validity of up to two years and are renewable. Foreign nationals from select countries require a medical certificate to obtain employment status.
Fragomen can also consult on citizenship matters and, as permitted within the confines of local law, may be able to offer citizenship assistance.
