Description: United States-Oman Free Trade Agreement (FTA)

The United States-Oman Free Trade Agreement entered into force in 2009.

The United States-Oman Free Trade Agreement (FTA) will:

1. Eliminate the tariffs
2. Promote the foreign direct investment (FDI)
3. Remove other Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT)

The tariff reductions and the enhanced market access that the United States-Oman Free Trade Agreement provides have the potential to make the U.S. export products more competitive with those from the United Arab Emirates and other countries of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf.

The United States-Oman Free Trade Agreement will provide new market access for the U.S. consumer, industrial, and agricultural export products

While the Sultanate of Oman is a moderately small market for the U.S. Products and services owing to its small population, the Sultanate of Oman is ideally situated to serve as platform from which to enter other regional markets (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates)

Oman is a member of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).
