Oman Visa-free Entry and E-Visa, Check Details for 2025 Travelers
Planning a trip to Oman in 2025? The latest updates to Oman visa-free and eVisa rules make it easier than ever for tourists to visit this beautiful Gulf country. Whether you’re from a visa-exempt nation or need a quick eVisa, Oman has streamlined entry to attract more global travelers.
Visa-Free Entry for Over 100 Countries
Travelers from more than 100 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, and Germany, can now visit Oman visa-free for up to 14 days. However, this short-term stay is non-extendable and requires meeting the following conditions:
Passport valid for at least 6 months
Confirmed hotel booking
Return flight ticket
Proof of sufficient funds
Valid travel health insurance
This visa-free rule is ideal for tourists planning a short vacation or business trip without the hassle of paperwork.
No Visa Required for GCC Residents
Citizens and residents of GCC countries — including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait — enjoy even greater flexibility. They can enter Oman without any visa restrictions or time limits, making travel across the Gulf region more seamless.
Special Rule for Indian and Other Nationals
Travelers from India, Egypt, Morocco, Vietnam, and several other nations not on the visa-free list can still enter Oman visa-free for 14 days — but only if they hold a valid visa or residency for countries like:
United States
United Kingdom
Schengen Zone
Canada
Japan
Australia
Any GCC country
This rule also applies to family members, such as spouses and children, even if they hold different nationalities, as long as they travel together.
Apply for Oman eVisa for Longer Stays
Those who want to stay longer than two weeks can apply for an Oman eVisa online. The eVisa platform offers several options:
10-day single-entry
30-day single-entry
Multiple-entry 30-day visas
Application is fast and user-friendly, helping travelers avoid embassy visits. Fees vary depending on the visa type chosen.
Future Travel Made Easier with GCC Unified Visa
Oman may soon be included in the upcoming GCC Unified Tourist Visa, expected later this year or in 2026. This will allow visitors to travel across multiple Gulf countries with a single visa, reducing paperwork and boosting regional tourism.
Before heading to Oman:
Check your eligibility for Oman visa-free entry
Ensure your documents are ready and valid
Choose the right visa type if planning a longer stay
Stay informed about upcoming changes in visa policies
With simplified travel rules and a focus on tourism, Oman is ready to welcome global visitors in 2025 with less stress and more adventure.
