OM — Oman

Oman is a sultanate on the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, known for its dramatic landscapes from desert to mountains to coastline. Muscat, the capital, blends traditional architecture with modern development. Oman is diversifying its economy beyond oil through tourism and technology. The Omani Rial (OMR) is one of the world's highest-valued currencies, subdivided into 1,000 baisa (three decimal places). For developers, the OM country code maps to the ar-OM locale for Omani Arabic. The .om domain is notable for a common typo — users typing '.com' may accidentally reach '.om' domains, a known phishing vector. The +968 dialing code serves Oman. Like other Gulf currencies (KWD, BHD, JOD), the OMR uses three decimal places, requiring proper currency formatting. Oman's Vision 2040 digital transformation initiative is expanding the tech sector. The .om domain's proximity to .com in typing makes it a cybersecurity concern that developers should be aware of.
