Oman Offshore Setup
Oman is one of the GCC's most stable and reform-oriented economies. The Foreign Capital Investment Law allows 100% foreign ownership across most sectors, while Oman's free zones — including Sohar, Salalah, and Duqm — offer tax exemptions and world-class logistics infrastructure. Oman's strategic position at the tip of the Arabian Peninsula makes it an ideal base for India-Africa-GCC trade routes.
Benefits of Oman Offshore
100% Foreign Ownership
Oman's Foreign Capital Investment Law (2019) permits 100% foreign ownership in the majority of commercial and industrial activities — no Omani sponsor required for most sectors.
Strategic Port & Logistics Hub
Sohar Port, Salalah Port, and the Port of Duqm are world-class logistics facilities connecting Asia, Africa, and the Gulf — ideal for manufacturing, trading, and distribution businesses.
Special Economic Zones & Free Zones
Sohar Free Zone, Salalah Free Zone, Al Mazunah Free Zone, and the Special Economic Zone at Duqm (SEZAD) offer zero corporate tax, customs exemptions, and 100% repatriation of profits.
Oman Vision 2040
Oman's diversification strategy targets logistics, tourism, mining, manufacturing, and technology — with structured government incentives for businesses investing in these priority sectors.
Low Operating Costs
Compared to Dubai and Riyadh, Oman offers competitive real estate, labour, and utility costs — making it attractive for manufacturing, warehousing, and back-office operations.
Political Stability
Oman is recognised as one of the most politically stable countries in the Arab world — with a long tradition of neutrality and a predictable regulatory environment for foreign businesses.
