Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How do I know If I'm eligible for the Oman eVisa?

The first thing you need to check is whether or not you are eligible for an e-visa. To do that, use iVisa’s Visa Checker. Just select your country of origin and Oman as your destination. If you do qualify for the visa, you will be able to apply on the spot.

What are the requirements?

The alternative to an Oman visa on arrival is an electronic visa. The process of obtaining it is entirely online, and you can use the services rendered by iVisa.

When you apply online, you need to meet some requirements. Even so, iVisa will ask very little of you so that your efforts are insignificant. You will need to provide these documents:

  • Passport with at least 6-month validity.

  • A scanned copy of the passport bio page.

  • A digital photo of yourself

  • Email address

  • A Credit/Debit card for the payment.

Must of the time, the online applications for the eVisa request more documents as a valid visa or residence permit from a specific country. To check if your nationality requires additional documents such as the aforementioned, please visit our iVisa Checker.

After you gather everything you need, you can move on to the application form. It should take only 15 minutes to complete, and if you need assistance, iVisa provides excellent support service 24/7.

How many processing times does iVisa has?

One of the common concerns about electronic visas is the cost. This is why we offer three options for the eVisa with the processing times and prices. These are the options:

  • Standard processing (4 Business Days) - USD $132.99.

  • Rush processing (2 Business Days) -USD $184.99.

  • Super rush processing (1 Business Day) - USD $259.99.

The prices will vary depending on the type of entry you want for the Oman eVisa. If you go for the multiple entries type, the prices will be as follows: USD $132.99, USD $184.99, or USD $259.99. For those who can apply for a GCC residence permit, the prices go down to USD $46.99, USD $75.99, or USD $109.99 respectively.

IMPORTANT: Weekends in Oman work differently than in other countries. If you apply on Friday, then you are not able to obtain the eVisa on Sunday, even choosing the rush processing. So please plan your trip dates according to the length of time it will take to obtain the Oman eVisa online.

How much time do I need to spend on the application form?

Give 20 minutes of your time to complete the whole application form. After submitting your application, you will be able to focus only on your travel plans, such as the ticket, hotel, etc.

How is the application form?

The application form consists of three simple steps:

  1. Basic Information – Provide your personal info as well as some details regarding your trip. Remember to select a processing time for your application (the total price might change according to your choice.)
  2. Revision and Payment – Place your payment during the application process. We accept credit/debit cards.
  3. Upload additional documents – Add your passport scan, then submit your form and wait for your visa to arrive via email.

The bottom line is that while the Oman visa on arrival is no longer available, we consider that if you apply online, you will have an easier time obtaining your travel document. There is no standing in line, and you can solve the visa issue before departure.
