Buildings and communities in Oman
Across Oman, property falls under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning, and the new Real Estate Registry Law is modernizing how property is registered. Expatriates may own in Integrated Tourism Complexes and in more areas under recent rules, so owners of one building can live in several countries. VAT has applied at 5% since April 2021 under the Oman Tax Authority, and RealMake uses the treatment your tax advisor sets for each building charge. Fawtara e-invoicing is scheduled by Decision 189/2026 to start on 1 April 2027 where annual supplies exceed OMR 5 million, then on 1 October 2027 for every other VAT-registered business.
