Overview
Oman's exchange rate stood at 0.38 in 2025, a rise of +0.00 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 0.38 by 2025. Oman ranked 202nd globally.
Oman’s exchange‑rate index, measured as the ratio of the national currency to the US dollar, has risen modestly over the 66‑year series, moving from 0.36 in 1960 to a World Bank‑reported 0.38 in 2025, placing the Sultanate 202nd among 213 economies. The index reached its historical high of 0.42 in 1970, a period coinciding with the oil‑price boom that amplified foreign‑exchange inflows, before falling to a trough of 0.35 in 1985 as regional oil markets contracted. Compared with peers, Oman’s 2025 level matches Bahrain’s 0.38 and exceeds Kuwait’s 0.31, yet remains well below Jordan’s 0.71, reflecting a relatively stable but less volatile currency regime. The gradual appreciation suggests that continued diversification of non‑oil revenues and modest fiscal prudence have helped sustain the modest upward trajectory; however, any sharp shifts in global oil prices or regional monetary policy could alter the path forward.
