Frequently asked questions
How does Oman compare with a UAE free zone?
Each serves different markets. GoldenKey generally recommends the UAE as the operating base and Oman where you have customers, suppliers or treaty benefits there.
Can my UAE company own the Oman company?
It can. A UAE free zone or mainland company can be the shareholder, which is a common structure for groups operating in both markets.
Do I need to travel to Oman to incorporate?
In most cases no. Incorporation is handled by our local partner under a power of attorney. Some banks in Oman require a video or in-person meeting.
Can a Spanish citizen own 100% of a company in Oman?
Yes. Spanish nationals can own the full share capital of a Oman company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Do Spanish nationals need a UAE visa before applying for Oman?
No. You can apply for the licence from Spain with scanned documents, and the investor residency visa is processed afterwards.
