Oman visa

Flag of OmanMuscat

Oman has a visa written specifically for people in your position — the GCC Resident Tourist Visa — but it turns on your job title rather than your nationality: the main traveller must hold one of the professions the Royal Oman Police lists as approved, with a companion visa available for whoever travels with them. That is the single thing worth checking before anything else, because a family can be eligible or not on the strength of one line in a residence permit. The ROP asks for applications at least four days ahead. We read the profession list against your visa and tell you straight away which way it falls.

How the process works

  1. Free eligibility check

    We confirm which visa applies to your nationality and residency.

  2. Document preparation

    Your file is reviewed and corrected before anything is submitted.

  3. Appointment & submission

    We book the appointment and guide you through biometrics.

  4. Tracking & collection

    We track the application and hand back your passport.

Documents you'll usually need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months with blank pages
  • UAE residence visa copy (valid at least 3 months)
  • Emirates ID copy (front and back)
  • Recent passport-size photographs to embassy specification
  • Bank statements for the last 3-6 months
  • Employment contract or NOC letter from your employer
  • Confirmed flight and hotel reservations
  • Travel medical insurance for the trip duration

Requirements vary. Oman may ask for additional documents depending on your nationality and purpose of travel. Send us your details and we'll confirm the exact list before you start.
