MUSCAT: The port also launched a secure customs corridor with Sohar Port, which will enhance the integration of Omani ports and support the efficiency of national supply chains.
The secure customs corridor represents a qualitative leap in supporting the import, export, and re-export system for the Omani private sector. It enables traders and investors to transport their goods smoothly and reliably within a customs environment that enhances the efficiency of logistics performance and contributes to reducing operating costs.

It also provides Omani companies with smoother access to global markets, enhancing their competitiveness and supporting private sector growth.


The initiative introduces an advanced customs system, enabling clearance from a single station at Khazaen Dry Port. It replaces traditional sealing with a shipping agent’s lead and accepts written guarantees, cutting time and effort for traders and improving the overall user experience.


These developments reflect Asyad Group’s commitment to facilitating cross-border trade, aligning with international standards, and strengthening Oman’s position as a competitive logistics hub.
Saad Bait Naseeb, CEO of Khazaen Dry Port, described the achievement as a milestone in developing the logistics landscape in Oman. Speaking to the Oman News Agency, he said the initiative supports Oman Vision 2040 by offering advanced trade solutions and expanding investment opportunities.
