February 2025 marks the celebration of British Month, kicking off a significant year for the UK-Oman friendship. This year commemorates the 225th anniversary of the 1800 ‘Unshook Agreement’, which expressed the hope that "the friendship of the two States may remain Unshook till the end of time, and till the sun and the moon have finished their revolving career."
The historic bond between our nations was rooted in trade and diplomacy, and today, this relationship continues to evolve. As we "Connect Cultures," people-to-people ties are at the heart of our shared experience—whether through our mutual love for sport, food, film, education of more. Throughout February, we will celebrate the best of British and Omani culture with a series of activities designed to bring us closer together.
This enduring friendship also looks forward. Together, we are committed to shaping a shared future—strengthening trade relations, supporting economic diversification, and advancing sustainability. Through collaborative partnerships and exchanges, the UK and Oman are building a foundation for resilient, diversified economies that will benefit future generations.
