Muscat – In line with Royal Directives aimed at promoting social stability and alleviating financial pressures facing young Omanis, Governorate of Muscat has officially launched the Marriage Fund Support Request Service. It is now available through the governorate’s official website.

The initiative enables eligible Omani citizens residing in Muscat to apply for financial assistance to support the costs of marriage. It seeks to encourage making families by reducing the economic challenges typically associated with starting married life.

The service is provided free of charge and applications processed within 30 working days, provided all necessary documentation is submitted in full.

To be eligible, applicants must reside in Muscat governorate, be aged between 22 and 45 years, have never been married, and have a monthly income not exceeding RO600. Additionally, the marriage must be to an Omani national.

Required documents include a copy of the applicant’s identity card (both sides), a certified marriage contract and a salary certificate verified by the applicant’s employer. Applications may be submitted either via the official website or by email. Once received, the relevant department will review the submission, verify documentation and assess eligibility. Approved applicants will be contacted telephonically.

Applications can be submitted via https://gom.gov.om/services.aspx?id=15
