2023 Omani general election

General elections were held in Oman on 29 October 2023. As the country is an absolute monarchy, the legislature is a purely advisory body.

Electoral system
The 90 members of the Consultative Assembly are elected from a mix of one- and two-member constituencies based on the 61 provinces; provinces with a population of under 30,000 elect one member while those with a population of over 30,000 elect two. Political parties are banned, meaning all candidates run on a non-partisan basis. The elections were fully digitized.

Campaign
According to the final electoral lists, 843 candidates, including 32 women, competed in these elections to choose the 90 members of the Shura Council, while the total number of registered voters reached 753,690. Omani nationals living abroad cast their votes electronically.

Results
Two thirds of elected members were new members. No female candidates were elected. Voter turnout was 66%, with 496,279 of the 753,690 registered voters voting. After the election Khalid Al Mawali was re-elected to the position of Chairman of the Consultative Assembly for the fourth time.
