How Oman corporate tax works

Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 introduced Oman corporate tax with effect from 1 June 2023. The first OMR 375,000 of taxable profit is exempt; profit above that threshold is taxed at 9%. There is no personal income tax.

Free Zone entities that meet the Qualifying Free Zone Person tests can pay 0% on Qualifying Income, but non-qualifying income - including most business with mainland Oman - is taxed at 9%. Small Business Relief lets resident businesses with under OMR 3 million in revenue elect zero taxable income.

Worked example

A mainland LLC posts OMR 1,000,000 in taxable profit. The first OMR 375,000 is exempt. The remaining OMR 625,000 is taxed at 9%, giving a tax bill of OMR 56,250.

Quick formulas

Tax = max(profit − 375,000, 0) × 0.09.
Effective rate = tax ÷ profit.
Free Zone qualifying income = 0% (subject to conditions).
