In a bid to boost Oman’s tourism industry, the country’s authorities have set up a visa-free travel system designed to entice more travellers to visit Oman.

With only a passport that is valid for at least six months, many nationals can now travel to Oman without requiring a visa.

Read on for more details.

The government of Oman announced that they are currently providing visa-free entry to tourists from 103 nations. These visitors are permitted to remain for a maximum of two weeks, with the opportunity to extend their visa-free stay once, although there will be a fee applied if they wish to do so.

Once the designated visit duration has ended, guests must request a one-month e-Visa, which requires payment of OMR 20. They may alternatively opt for a multi-entry visa that is valid for a year as long as particular requirements are fulfilled and each visit duration does not exceed one month.

Travellers from GCC countries are allowed to enter Oman without having to first obtain a visa. The countries are:

  • Bahrain
  • Kuwait
  • Qatar
  • Saudi Arabia
  • United Arab Emirates
