What is Oman Transit Visa?
Oman Transit Visa needs to be applied for when you are travelling between two countries and you have a change of flight in Oman. If you are travelling through Oman via the same flight, you are allowed to stay for up to six hours but you must have onward flight ticket and visa (if applicable).
This visa is granted by the concerned authorities based on the application submitted. It allows you to enter the country only once and stay for up to 72 hours (three days) provided you have sufficient money to cover your expenses and a valid ticket further to the actual destination.
Is Oman Transit Visa really needed?
When you are travelling from one country to another, if your stop is in Oman with the same flight for less than six hours, then you don’t need a visa. However, if you have a flight change, with a delay of more than six hours then you definitely need this visa, because you won’t be allowed inside the terminal to board the new flight unless you have a valid Transit visa and onward flight ticket.
