Oman Tourist Visa
The Oman Tourist Visa, officially the Unsponsored Tourist Visit Visa, allows foreign nationals to visit the Sultanate of Oman for sightseeing, leisure, and short-term travel, generally for up to 30 days per visit. Oman introduced its eVisa system in 2018 through the official Royal Oman Police (ROP) portal, and applications for tourist and express visas are now processed exclusively online, with no in-person service desk option. Citizens of GCC countries enjoy visa-free entry, and travellers from more than 100 countries can benefit from a 14-day visa exemption under certain conditions. For Indian citizens, obtaining the standard eVisa generally requires holding a valid visa or residence permit from the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, a Schengen country, or Japan, or holding GCC residency in an approved profession. Final approval rests solely with the Royal Oman Police.
Eligibility
To apply for an Oman Tourist Visa, applicants generally must:
- Hold a passport valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry into Oman
- Provide a confirmed return ticket
- Provide a confirmed hotel reservation
- Hold health insurance covering their stay
- Show sufficient financial means to cover living expenses during the visit
- For many Indian applicants, hold a valid visa or residence permit for the US, Canada, Australia, the UK, a Schengen country, or Japan (valid for more than 3 months), or hold GCC residency in an approved profession
Indian citizens can enter Oman without a visa for stays of up to 14 days under a bilateral agreement, but a visa is required for any stay beyond that period.

Sweden Tourist Visa Processing Time
Oman Visa Processing Time for the Tourist Visa is typically fast, ranging from instant approval to around 3 to 5 business days once a complete application is submitted online, though timelines can vary by nationality and time of year. Once approved, the eVisa is sent by email as a PDF, which applicants should print and present to immigration staff at the airport. Processing can extend during peak travel seasons or if additional documentation is requested. Applicants are advised to apply well in advance of their intended travel date, and the tourist visa can generally be extended once at the ROP for an additional 30 days.
