Order of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said


The Order of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said is an order of Oman. It is sometimes called the "Order of Merit of Sultan Qaboos" in English.

History

The order was instituted in a single class in 1978 by Sultan Qaboos bin Said. The only known awards of the order were made in 1983 and it appears to be in disuse.

Insignia

The insignia was created by Asprey. The ribbon is white with a central red stripe and green borders. It is worn around the neck for men and as a bow for women. Both versions have the same badge with a portrait of Sultan Qaboos bin Said surrounded by a row of diamonds and a row of green enamel.
