Travelling to Oman and exploring its Governorates

The entry procedures and required documentation differ based on the visitor's country of origin. In most situations, a tourist visa can be obtained upon arrival; nevertheless, it is preferable to obtain the visa prior to travel for a more seamless experience. In fact, The Sultanate of Oman offers a visa exemption for transit to citizens of approximately 103 countries worldwide. Citizens of other countries not included in the exemption must obtain a transit visa to enter Oman. Visit the official Royal Oman Police website to learn about the possibilities for visa facilitation before your trip.
