What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry
  • A completed online application on the Royal Oman Police e-visa portal
  • A digital passport photo uploaded with the application
  • A copy of the passport bio page and, if applicable, a confirmed hotel booking or sponsor details
  • Evidence of a return or onward ticket
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the stay
  • No biometrics are required for the e-visa; fingerprints and photo may be captured on arrival as standard border procedure

Visa types

  • Tourist e-visa, single entry, valid for a stay of up to 30 days from the date of entry, extendable once for an additional 30 days
  • Tourist e-visa, multiple entry, longer validity option for frequent travelers, at a higher fee
  • Unsponsored visit visa for business purposes, requiring a local sponsor or company invitation, applied for through the same portal

How to apply online

  • Visit the Royal Oman Police e-visa portal and register an account
  • Complete the application form with passport details, travel dates and accommodation information
  • Upload the passport photo and passport bio page scan
  • Pay the visa fee online by credit or debit card
  • Receive the e-visa approval by email as a PDF; print it and present it with your passport on arrival

Fees & processing time

  • Single-entry 30-day tourist e-visa: approximately OMR 20 (about USD 52)
  • Multiple-entry e-visa: approximately OMR 50 (about USD 130), depending on validity
  • No separate service or courier fee since the process is fully online
  • Standard processing time: 3-5 business days from a complete, error-free application
  • No expedited option is officially advertised; applying at least a week ahead avoids most delays

Tips for Algeria travelers

  • Apply at least 1-2 weeks before travel to allow buffer time for processing
  • Double-check that passport details entered online exactly match the passport, as mismatches are a common cause of rejection
  • Keep a printed copy of the e-visa approval, since some airlines check it before boarding
  • The 30-day extension can be requested online before the initial visa expires
  • Oman's e-visa is separate from the GCC unified tourist visa; confirm current eligibility rules before applying, as they are occasionally updated
