Oman company formation takes 1 to 3 weeks, and GoldenKey coordinates the local agents, documents and bank introductions from Ajman. In our experience, the tax position in Oman is clear: 15% corporate tax with a 3% rate for qualifying small businesses, 5% VAT. As we tell every client, typical examples of this activity include digital printing, signage, label printing and packaging manufacturing, which can usually sit together on one Oman licence. GoldenKey has licensed printing and packaging company businesses for clients in Oman and knows which sub-activities to list so you are not asked to amend the licence later.

Crucially, documents for Oman are collected and attested in the UAE where required, so you do not need to travel for incorporation. Oman is a sensible home for printing & packaging because commercial printing, signage, labels and packaging production is a well-understood activity there and the approvals are routine.
