The Order of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said (Arabic: وسام صاحب الجلالة السلطان قابوس بن سعيد المعظم, romanized: Wisam Sahib al-Jalalat al-Sultan Qaboos bin Said) is an order of Oman.[1] It is sometimes called the "Order of Merit of Sultan Qaboos" in English.[2]
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.[3]
