Oman has overhauled its residency permit system, introducing flexible validity durations and streamlined fees for expatriate residence cards.
The Royal Oman Police (ROP) announced a tiered renewal model that allows residents to choose between one, two, or three-year options priced at 5, 10, and 15 Omani rials (OMR), respectively, offering much-needed flexibility to the roughly 1.8 million expatriates living in the country.
Additionally, a flat 20 OMR fee now covers replacement for lost or damaged cards.
