If you operate a factory, craft production workshop, or manufacturing business in the Sultanate of Oman, displaying the official National Product Identity logo (“Made in Oman”) on your product packaging is one of the most powerful ways to build immediate consumer trust, gain priority in government purchases, and boost export recognition. However, you cannot simply download the green Khanjar checkmark logo online and place it on your packaging. Using the identity mark without an official license violates Ministerial Decision No. 62/2023 issued by the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Investment Promotion (MoCIIP).

1. The 3 Mandatory Qualification Criteria
Under current Omani industrial regulations, any commercial enterprise operating within Oman can apply for the national identity license if they satisfy all three non-negotiable criteria:

2. Local Omani Production
Physical transformation, manufacturing, processing, or packaging must occur inside Oman. Applies to produce, dates, textiles, cables, food items, and heavy industrial goods.
3. Minimum 20% ICV Content
Your product must achieve a minimum In-Country Value (ICV) threshold of at least 20% local content addition according to the official price formula.
