# Oman (OM)

**Capital:** Mascate

**Population:** 5'359'557  
**Area:** 309'500 km²

> L'Oman si trova in posizione strategica all'estremità sud-orientale della penisola arabica, sul golfo dell'Oman e sul mare Arabico. I porti di Salalah (hub mondiale di trasbordo), Sohar e Duqm e l'aeroporto di Mascate (MCT) sostengono il commercio estero; la rete ferroviaria è solo in fase di progetto. Lo sdoganamento è interamente elettronico tramite lo sportello unico Bayan della dogana (ROP), nell'ambito dell'unione doganale del CCG con una tariffa esterna comune perlopiù del 5 per cento. L'IVA all'importazione è del 5 per cento. Grazie all'accordo di libero scambio AELS-CCG, le merci di origine svizzera beneficiano di un trattamento preferenziale.

Oman (OM) liegt an der Südostspitze der Arabischen Halbinsel und fungiert als Transitland und Umschlag-Hub am Golf von Oman und Arabischen Meer — die Häfen Salalah und Duqm liegen ausserhalb der Strasse von Hormuz. Als Mitglied der GCC-Zollunion gilt ein gemeinsamer Aussenzoll von meist 5 Prozent auf den CIF-Wert; die Zollabwicklung läuft elektronisch über das Single-Window Bayan der ROP-Zollbehörde, die Einfuhr-VAT beträgt 5 Prozent. Wichtigste Gateways sind die Häfen Salalah (globaler Transshipment-Hub), Sohar und Duqm (SEZAD) sowie die Flughäfen Maskat (MCT) und Salalah (SLL). Strassenseitig verbinden der Batinah-Korridor Maskat–Sohar–VAE und die Route 31 nach Salalah das Land mit dem GCC-Netz; ein Schienennetz ist erst in Planung. Exportiert werden vor allem Rohöl, Erdgas und Petrochemie, importiert Maschinen, Fahrzeuge und Nahrungsmittel; wichtigste Handelspartner sind China, Indien und die VAE. Über das GCC-EFTA-Abkommen sind Schweizer Ursprungswaren präferenzberechtigt.
