Oman’s non-oil exports to the UAE in 2025 increased 25 percent year on year to OMR1.3 billion ($3.4 billion), the state-run Oman News Agency reported, quoting the National Centre for Statistics and Information.

The UAE also accounted for 35 percent of total re-export trade valued at OMR724 million, up 27 percent year on year. Imports from the UAE increased by 5.4 percent annually to OMR4.1 billion.

Oman’s exports to Saudi Arabia surged by 30 percent annually to OMR1.1 billion, while exports to India increased by 6 percent year on year to OMR700 million. 

Oman and India signed a long-delayed Cepa in December to boost trade between the two nations.

In contrast, non-oil exports to South Korea and the US declined by 26 percent and 13 percent, respectively.

US president Donald Trump imposed a 10 percent tariff on the six-nation GCC bloc of Oman, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar in April 2025.

  • Gulf faces renewed trade uncertainty from US tariff chaos
  • Oman turns to finance to ease fiscal pressures
  • Oman’s trade surplus remains but narrows by 36%

Overall, Oman’s non-oil exports grew by 8 percent to OMR6.7 billion in 2025, compared with OMR6.2 billion in 2024.

Despite growth in non-oil exports, total foreign trade fell 3 percent to OMR40.4 billion last year from OMR41.7 billion in 2024, due to lower oil revenues. 

Oil export earnings declined 15 percent year on year to OMR14.5 billion, as the average price of Omani crude fell to $71 per barrel from $80.8 per barrel a year earlier, the report said.

Big News: First U.S. Spot XRP and DOGE ETF by Rex-Osprey Officially Launches: Details

In a landmark development for digital asset investors, REX-Osprey, a collaboration between REX Shares and Osprey Funds, has rolled out the first-ever U.S.-listed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) offering direct spot exposure to Dogecoin (DOGE) and XRP. According to a press release on Businessnewswire, the new products, trading under tickers DOJE and XRPR on the Cboe exchange, mark a significant step in bringing two of the most recognized cryptocurrencies into regulated investment vehicles. Dogecoin Gets Its First ETF The launch of DOJE represents a historic milestone as the first Dogecoin spot ETF in the United States. Once regarded as a meme coin driven by online culture and celebrity endorsements, Dogecoin has since grown into one of the top cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, supported by a highly active global community. Also Read: Massive Breakout Imminent? ‘XRP is Now Where ETH Was in 2017 Right Before Explosion’ By structuring DOGE under the 1940 Act fund framework, REX-Osprey is making the asset more accessible to traditional investors who prefer trading through established brokerage accounts rather than crypto exchanges. Analysts note that this could broaden institutional interest in DOGE, especially as regulatory-compliant exposure options expand. XRP ETF Brings Utility-Focused Crypto Into Spotlight Alongside DOJE, the XRPR ETF provides exposure to XRP, the digital asset powering Ripple’s payments network. XRP has long been associated with fast, low-cost cross-border transactions, a use case that has attracted growing attention from both banks and payment providers. The XRPR fund will hold most of its assets directly in spot XRP, with the remainder invested in XRP-backed exchange-traded products. This hybrid structure aims to provide investors with a liquid and straightforward way to gain exposure to an asset that continues to be at the center of conversations about the future of international payments. Expanding a Growing ETF Lineup The new DOGE and XRP ETFs follow the July debut of the REX-Osprey SOL + Staking ETF (SSK), which became the first U.S.-listed ETF to combine spot Solana exposure with on-chain staking rewards. That fund has already surpassed $275 million in assets under management and recently converted to a Regulated Investment Company (RIC) structure, boosting tax efficiency for investors while keeping its staking benefits intact. According to Greg King, CEO of REX Financial and Osprey Funds, the launch of DOJE and XRPR underscores the firm’s ambition to pioneer regulated investment pathways for digital assets. “ETFs have always been about access,” King said in a statement. “The digital asset revolution is accelerating, and to deliver exposure to leading tokens like Dogecoin and XRP within the protection of the U.S. ETF framework is something we are proud to bring to the market.” What This Means for Crypto Adoption Market watchers suggest that the arrival of DOGE and XRP ETFs could broaden crypto exposure in retirement portfolios, wealth management products, and institutional trading desks. For Dogecoin, this marks a shift from meme-driven volatility to potentially more structured investment flows. For XRP, the ETF comes at a time when analysts, including those at Morgan Stanley, have speculated on its potential to capture a share of the $150 trillion cross-border payments market currently dominated by SWIFT. With these launches, REX-Osprey continues to carve out a niche as one of the leading firms bridging crypto-native assets with the regulated ETF space, setting the stage for broader institutional adoption in the coming years.
