Expat Guide To Living In Oman
July 16, 2021
Life in Oman is exciting, with a culture different from other Gulf states.
For one thing, with a population of 4.9 million, it’s tiny compared to neighbouring Saudi Arabia. In addition, it takes about ten days to drive a complete circuit of the country.
Among the ancient forts and gorgeous Arabian Sea beaches, you’ll find a whopping 42 per cent of people here are expats, including 8,000 from the UK.
Expats find life in Oman easy, with low living costs, zero income tax and non-existent crime. Visas are straightforward, too, despite the Omanisation policy to prioritise jobs for local people.
