Guide last updated October 24, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond entry
  • Passport-size photo, white background, if applying for the e-Visa online
  • Confirmed return or onward flight ticket
  • Hotel booking confirmation or sponsor details
  • Evidence of sufficient funds for the stay
  • Travel health insurance recommended
  • No biometrics required before arrival; fingerprints and photo are captured at the immigration counter on arrival
  • Credit/debit card or OMR cash for the visa fee if paying on arrival

Visa types

  • Tourist Visa (10 days) - single entry, fee around OMR 5 (roughly USD 13)
  • Tourist Visa (30 days) - single or multiple entry, fee around OMR 20-50 (roughly USD 52-130)
  • Business visa - requires a sponsor letter from an Omani company, obtainable through the e-Visa portal
  • Oman also accepts certain GCC member-state visas/residence permits for faster entry in some cases

Visa on arrival

  • Available at Muscat International Airport and other official entry points
  • Present your passport, return ticket and accommodation details at the visa counter on arrival
  • Pay the fee in OMR cash or by card at the counter
  • Processing at the airport desk typically takes 15-30 minutes
  • Alternatively, apply online in advance through the Royal Oman Police e-Visa portal (evisa.rop.gov.om) to receive approval before flying and skip the on-arrival queue
  • Queue tip: arriving with the e-Visa pre-approval printed significantly speeds up immigration clearance

Fees & processing time

  • 10-day visa: approximately OMR 5 (USD 13)
  • 30-day visa: approximately OMR 20-50 (USD 52-130) depending on single/multiple entry
  • No separate VFS/BLS fee if applying directly on arrival or via the official e-Visa portal
  • Total cost estimate: USD 13-130 depending on visa type
  • Standard processing time: 15-30 minutes on arrival; 2-4 working days if applying online in advance
  • No formal express option; the online e-Visa route is effectively the fastest path

Tips for Hong Kong travelers

  • Apply for the e-Visa online a few days before travel to avoid queues and reduce the risk of being turned away for incomplete documents
  • Carry both OMR cash and a card, as accepted payment methods can vary by entry point
  • Common issues: no confirmed hotel booking, unclear return ticket details
  • Extensions can be requested at the Royal Oman Police Directorate General of Passports and Residence before the visa expires
  • Confirm with immigration if planning multi-entry activities, as visa validity can allow short repeat crossings
