What is the Oman Resident Card and what if my employer delays it?

In Oman your residency ID is the Resident Card, issued by the Royal Oman Police (ROP). Your employer applies for it after you arrive and after your in-country medical and paperwork are done. The Resident Card proves you are living and working in Oman legally, and you need it for banking, a SIM postpaid line, and other services. If your employer delays it, you can be left without legal papers, which risks fines and problems. Ask your employer in writing to complete it. Keep copies of your passport and visa meanwhile. If the employer keeps refusing, you can raise it with the Ministry of Labour, and the Bangladesh Embassy labour wing can also help.
