The clothing is similar to the Emirati kandura. While the tassel style is more typically Omani, some variations in the UAE can resemble it. The UAE and Oman share a border and have close cultural ties, making styles of dress sometimes overlap. The general setting of a modern home with tiled floors is extremely common in the UAE. The man's appearance would also fit within the diverse population of the Emirates, which includes a large number of expatriates from South Asia and other Arab countries. This is a plausible alternative if the specific tassel style is not exclusively Omani.

This candidate is based on the man's physical appearance, which could be interpreted as South Asian, particularly Pakistani. A very large number of Pakistani expatriates live and work in Gulf countries like Oman and the UAE. Therefore, this could be a Pakistani man living in the Gulf. It is also possible, though less likely, that the photo was taken in Pakistan and the man is wearing a dishdasha acquired from the Gulf. This theory is weaker as it prioritizes an interpretation of ethnicity over the direct evidence of the culturally specific clothing, which points to the location being in the Arabian Peninsula.
