Overview

2-year renewable visa for foreign entrepreneurs and business partners establishing companies in Oman. For equity shareholders holding minimum 25% stake.

The Partner Visa (2 Years) is a strategic residency instrument designed to support Oman's business-friendly environment and attract foreign direct investment. Established to facilitate the entry and long-term stay of international entrepreneurs, this visa addresses the need for a structured, renewable residency route for those directly involved in the ownership and management of Omani companies. It bridges the gap between short-term business visitor visas and long-term investor residency, providing a stable platform for partners to oversee their ventures effectively.

This visa is specifically for foreign entrepreneurs, business owners, and shareholders who are actively involved in establishing or operating a business within Oman. It is ideal for individuals who hold a significant stake in a local entity and require legal residency to manage their operations. The visa is distinctive because it is directly linked to business ownership and requires the company to hold a valid Investor’s License. With a minimum savings or capital requirement, it targets serious business professionals committed to contributing to the Omani market over a multi-year period.
