Message from the Ambassador
Dear guest,
It is an honour on behalf of myself and all the employees of the Embassy of the Sultanate of Oman to the Republic of Lebanon, to express my gratitude and appreciation to all visitors to the Embassy’s website.
I would like to emphasise that the Embassy through its website aims to build bridges of cooperation and communication with Omani citizens, who are residing in or visiting Lebanon. This is in line with the Sultanate’s strategic aim to simplify procedures and provide the best services possible.
The Embassy strives to promote and strengthen the long standing brotherly relations between Oman and Lebanon. It also works to provide information to Lebanese citizens who are interested in advancing economic, commercial, investment, tourism, cultural and educational relations to serve the common interests of both countries.
We look forward to receiving your suggestions, through the Embassy or its website, for improving the services provided.
Dr Ahmed Mohammed Alsaidi
Ambassador of the Sultanate of Oman to the Republic of Lebanon
