Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people in Oman face significant challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents.[2] Homosexuality in the Sultanate of Oman is illegal according to §§, 33 and 223 of the penal code and can be punished with a prison sentence of up to three years. This law is applicable to both men and women. In Oman, it is said that cases only get to court if "public scandal" is involved.[1]
