How it works
Three residency routes through property
Buying property in Oman can lead to residency, but the route that applies depends on a few facts about the home: its price, whether it is completed, and whether it sits in an Integrated Tourism Complex (ITC). This checker asks about those facts and then tells you which of the three property routes fits.
- Golden Residency: from OMR 200,000, 10 years, renewable, for a completed unit in an ITC with a title deed.
- Off-plan buyers: a renewable 6–12-month property visa until the unit is registered (ROP Decision 87/2026).
- Owners of a registered unit can apply for Property Owner Residency.
The budget question matters because Golden Residency starts at OMR 200,000. The completed or off-plan question matters because Golden Residency is for a completed unit with a title deed issued; a home that is still being built gives a property visa first, and qualifies for Golden Residency only once it is completed and registered, if it is in an ITC and priced at or above the threshold. The ITC question matters because that route applies to ITC units.
After the result, the checker lists developments from our live catalogue whose starting prices sit within your budget. That list is about price only. We describe a development as inside an ITC only where we are sure; for the rest, confirm the ownership terms with the developer.
