Government tenders in Oman: where they are published.

Public tenders in Oman are published across 7 sources TRINTA has mapped. The national channels are Oman eTendering and ASYAD, tenders. Beyond those, 5 more sources publish their own notices: 2 state-owned enterprises publishing their own notices, 1 public agencies and institutions publishing directly, 1 health buyers, hospitals and medical purchasing agencies and 1 defence buyers.

TRINTA maps 7 sources in Oman: the national channels plus 2 state-owned enterprises publishing their own notices, 1 public agencies and institutions publishing directly, 1 health buyers, hospitals and medical purchasing agencies and 1 defence buyers. The count matters because no single address carries everything, and each category publishes at its own rhythm.

TRINTA reads Oman's official sources every day, 7 mapped, 4 read by a dedicated connector. The radar is built per client: it starts from the company's real catalogue, builds a multilingual keyword profile, scores every notice 0 to 100 for fit with the reasoning shown, and attaches the procedure documents. A short scored digest arrives each morning. The same radar covers 170+ countries, so a company selling in Oman can watch neighbouring markets with the same profile.

Suppliers, contractors and consultancy offices licensed in Oman: the registration regulation applies to them, and not to foreign companies and offices competing in international tenders under the Tender Law. 1. Prepare what the request needs: the grade sought, a commercial registration valid for at least 60 days, an Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry membership certificate, a valid municipal licence, the tax certificate, any licences from the competent authorities, and the application fee. 2. Submit the classification and registration request, with all the documents and data, on the e-tendering system's website. 3. The registration department decides within 15 working days of a complete request; a refusal must be reasoned, and no decision within that period counts as a refusal. Checked on 12 Oct 2026 against the official sources linked above. Procedures change, and each tender's own documents decide.

Tenders are governed by the Tender Law issued by Royal Decree No. 36/2008, which the e-tendering portal publishes with its executive regulation.

A public tender is local or international: an international tender is open to international companies and institutions not registered in Oman, a local tender only to those in the commercial register or a professional register the Tender Board decides (article 16).

Every bid carries a provisional guarantee of no less than 1% of its total value, forfeited if the bidder withdraws before the bid's validity ends (article 43). The winner provides a performance guarantee of 5% of the awarded value within ten working days of being told of the award, or twenty for contracts with a contractor abroad (article 44).

National products of small and medium industries that meet the conditions and specifications get a price preference of up to 10% (article 36).

Tenders are announced in a widely read daily newspaper in Arabic and English, and may also be published electronically; tenders worth more than half a million Omani rials are announced in the Official Gazette too (article 18).
