Why choose us?

INCENTIVE

At present, the Omani government does not have any specific tax incentives for foreign film productions. However, that is due to change in the very near future.

The government intends to maintain the Omani culture, and this is the reason why such initiatives are not yet being actively promoted. 

However, with the changing times, the good news is that they are opening up this sector. They are very supportive of international productions coming into the country.  

At Screen Oman, we are in frequent communication with the relevant authorities and look forward to being able to offer you special incentives for filming in Oman.
