With Eid Al Fitr 1447 AH approaching, authorities in Oman have directed government entities and private companies to release March salaries earlier than usual to help workers prepare for the holiday. The move aims to ensure financial stability for employees across the country ahead of the festive period, with ministries setting specific deadlines for payroll processing and payments.
The Ministry of Finance issued Circular No. 1/2026, instructing government entities to accelerate the processing of salaries for employees working within the State’s Administrative Apparatus. The directive outlines a series of deadlines that ministries and government units must follow to ensure that salaries and pensions for March are disbursed ahead of Eid.
