A more modest budget, with shared or outside-centre housing, can bring this to OMR 600\u2013800.<\/p>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details>\n      <summary>How much does it cost for a family to live in Oman?<\/summary>\n      <p>Families typically budget OMR 1,800\u20132,600 per month for a comfortable Muscat lifestyle. School fees are usually the largest additional line item for relocating families.<\/p>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details>\n      <summary>Is Oman cheaper than Dubai?<\/summary>\n      <p>Yes, significantly. Oman is consistently 30\u201350% less expensive than Dubai across housing, dining, entertainment and schooling. A comparable two-bedroom apartment in Muscat typically costs 40\u201350% less than in central Dubai.<\/p>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details>\n      <summary>Does Oman have income tax?<\/summary>\n      <p>No. Oman does not levy personal income tax on salary or investment income for individuals.<\/p>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details>\n      <summary>How much are international school fees in Oman?<\/summary>\n      <p>Annual tuition in Muscat typically ranges OMR 1,500 to OMR 8,000 or more per child, depending on curriculum and tier, with a median around OMR 3,500. Fees outside Muscat run 30\u201350% lower for the same curriculum.<\/p>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details>\n      <summary>Does owning property in Oman affect the cost of living?<\/summary>\n      <p>Owning removes rent as a monthly line item and, for qualifying ITC freehold purchases, can open a residency pathway.
