Frequently Asked Questions
Get answer key compliance questions regarding business setup and registration in the Sultanate of Oman.
Yes. Under the Foreign Capital Investment Law (FCIL) implemented by the Sultanate of Oman, international investors are permitted to hold 100% foreign ownership in most commercial sectors, without requiring an Omani shareholder or local agent.
With the digital integration of the Invest Easy portal under MOCIIP, the Commercial Registration (CR) certificate and OCCI membership can be issued in 3 to 5 business days. Establishing corporate bank accounts and securing resident investor visas typically takes an additional 3 to 4 weeks depending on bank verification and ROP approvals.
Yes. To obtain a fully active municipal license (Baladiya) and satisfy Muscat Municipality compliance rules, your business must have a registered commercial lease agreement. Muscat Municipality does not allow the permanent use of virtual offices for standard Commercial Registrations. We assist in locating and registering fully compliant office layouts.
Oman enforces a flat 15% corporate income tax rate on all registered companies. Micro-businesses and proprietary operations with limited revenues may qualify for a lower 3% rate. The standard Value Added Tax (VAT) rate is 5%, managed by the Oman Tax Authority.
No. All government fees charged by Omani ministries (e.g., MOCIIP, OCCI, Muscat Municipality, Ministry of Labor, and Royal Oman Police) are paid directly to the government portals and are not included in our package prices. This ensures complete transparency, with zero markups on regulatory fees.
