Sultan Haitham bin Tariq of Oman has issued two royal decrees to establish new economic zones in the country, marking a strategic move to diversify the national economy and attract foreign investment. The zones are expected to serve as hubs for trade, manufacturing, and logistics, supporting Oman’s broader economic transformation agenda. Details regarding their exact locations and targeted industries have not yet been disclosed, but officials indicate that the initiatives align with the country’s Vision 2040 plan to reduce dependence on hydrocarbon revenues. n nThe creation of these zones reflects Oman’s ongoing efforts to enhance its business environment, streamline regulations, and offer incentives for international investors. The government aims to stimulate private sector growth and generate employment opportunities for Omani nationals. These developments are part of a wider regional trend among Gulf nations to expand economic free zones and special development areas. n nAnalysts suggest the new zones could boost non-oil GDP and strengthen Oman’s position as a regional trade corridor between Asia, Africa, and Europe.
