BMW publishes this information for the North America market: Synthetic Engine Oils - BMW North America

Search for information to answer your question specific to your car/location. In short, you can buy "BMW" oils at a dealer / parts department or use one of the recommended brands that match BMW's spec sheet. Beware, there are lots of opinions on this topic - verify that the source of the information is authoritative.
