Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Indian passport holders need a visa to enter Oman for tourism purposes.
You can only travel to Oman visa-free if you meet one of the following conditions:
If you are either a resident or have a valid entry visa for one of the following countries that is valid for more than 6 months: the United States of America, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Schengen Agreement countries and Japan, or
If you are a resident of one of the Gulf Cooperation Council countries.
If not, you must apply for an Oman e-visa before travelling to the country.
Here is what the Oman e-visa (also known as the Oman 6A visa) looks like:
As of the latest regulations, Oman does not offer Indian citizens visas upon arrival. Indians must obtain a visa prior to their arrival in Oman.
However, as mentioned earlier, Indian citizens who are residents of or hold valid visas for certain countries like the USA, UK, or Schengen nations may be eligible for visa-free entry under specific conditions. Always check with your authorised sponsor or the Royal Oman Police for the most current visa policies before planning your trip.
Here are the Oman e-visa requirements for Indians:
Passport: You will need to submit a scanned copy of your passport’s front and back page. Also, ensure your current passport is valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date in Oman.
Visa photo: A digital passport-size photo taken recently on a plain background.
Yes, you can apply for an Oman visa only through a government-authorised sponsor. Once you submit the requested documents and fee, the sponsor will take care of the entire application process on your behalf.
Note: Atlys is authorized by the Government of Oman.
Like many Gulf countries, Oman relies on a sponsor-led system to process visas. Oman wants to control illegal migration without making the visa process too burdensome. In order for them to do this, Oman authorises certain sponsors across the world to process such visas.
Atlys is one of the few sponsors authorised by the Government of Oman.
Yes, you can apply for an Oman visa even if you are currently in another Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) country, such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, or Kuwait. The process remains similar, and you can apply through an authorised sponsor or online, depending on the type of visa.
However, ensure that your current visa status in the other GCC country is valid and that you have a passport with at least six months of validity from the date of your planned entry into Oman. Additionally, if you are a resident of a GCC country, you may be eligible for a simplified visa application process or even visa-free entry, depending on your nationality and the specific agreements in place.
To ensure your Oman visa application is not rejected, take care of the following points:
Authorised sponsor: Since a sponsor applies on your behalf, ensure that the one you choose is authorised. Avoid using channels not authorised by the Government of Oman that are not well-versed in the visa application process.
Accurate documentation: Ensure that your passport is valid for at least 6 months from arrival and that the photograph is clear (without filters) for accurate identification.
Yes, you can cancel your Oman visa after it has been issued, but the process depends on the type of visa and the policies of the sponsor or issuing authority. To cancel the visa, you typically need to contact the sponsor who processed your application. The cancellation process might involve submitting a formal request and paying a cancellation fee. Note that once cancelled, the visa cannot be reinstated, and you would need to reapply if you wish to visit Oman in the future.
Here are the steps to apply for Oman e-visa for Indians using Axis Visa:
Start application: Start your Oman visa application by visiting Axis Visa
Upload documents: You can upload an existing photo or take a selfie directly using your smartphone or laptop. Also, upload the front and back pages of your passport.
Finalise and pay: Review your application, then check out and pay the applicable visa fees.
Track your application: During the processing period, you can use the Atlys app to track the progress of your application.
Receive your visa: After the visa is processed, the Oman e-visa will be sent to you via mail. You must print it out to present at immigration checkpoints when you enter the country.
Axis Visa is officially authorised by the Government of Oman. Here are additional reasons why you need to choose Axis Visa:
Easy visa applications: Our platform is user-friendly. With just a few clicks, you can complete the application from the comfort of your home.
Add multiple travellers: Our advanced system allows you to add co-travellers (multiple travellers, like friends and family) in a single application. This feature is designed to save you time and reduce the hassle of applying separately for each traveller.
Secure: Your personal information is kept safe and encrypted. We do not sell your data to third parties.
Great support: We understand the uncertainty and anxiousness that follows after submitting a visa application. Hence, we offer real-time updates on your visa status and expert help if you have any questions.
Wide coverage: Apart from Oman, we also serve visas to 80+ countries for Indian citizens. Such wide coverage allows you to apply for visas to numerous countries worldwide.
If you lose your passport after obtaining an Oman e-visa, you should immediately report the loss to your local police and obtain a police report. You will then need to apply for a new passport. Once you have the new passport, you may need to reapply for the Oman tourist visa, as visas are generally linked to the passport number.
Some visa types may allow for a transfer to the new passport, but this depends on Omani regulations and should be confirmed with your sponsor or the relevant authorities.
No, you cannot work in Oman with a tourist visa.
Working while on a tourist visa is illegal and can lead to severe penalties, including fines, imprisonment, and deportation. If you intend to work in Oman, you must apply for a work visa, which requires a job offer from an Omani employer and approval from the Omani Ministry of Manpower.
Please note engaging in any form of employment without the proper visa can also negatively impact your ability to obtain visas for other countries in the future.
In general, changing your visa type after arriving in Oman is not straightforward and is subject to strict regulations. For example, if you enter Oman on a tourist visa and later decide you want to work in the country, you would typically need to exit Oman and reapply for a work visa from your home country or another eligible country.
However, there may be exceptions for certain visa types, such as switching from a business visa to a work visa if you receive a job offer while in Oman. This process would require approval from the Omani authorities, and you would likely need to engage with your sponsor or employer to facilitate the visa change. It’s important to consult with your sponsor or the relevant Omani authorities to understand the specific rules and procedures for changing visa types.
The processing time for an Oman visa for Indians typically ranges from 3 to 7 business days, depending on the type of visa and the processing sponsor’s efficiency. However, this timeframe can vary based on factors such as the time of year, the number of applications being processed, and whether additional documentation or verification is required.
It is recommended that you apply for the visa well in advance of your planned travel date to avoid any last-minute issues.
If you need to travel urgently and haven’t received your Oman visa yet, you have a few options:
Contact your sponsor: Reach out to your sponsor to see if they can expedite the processing of your visa. Some sponsors, like Atlys, offer an express Oman visa service for an additional fee.
Check for visa-on-arrival options: Although Indian citizens are generally not eligible for visa-on-arrival in Oman, if you hold residency or a valid visa for certain countries (like the US, UK, or Schengen countries), you may be eligible for visa-free entry. Verify this option with your sponsor.
Consider alternative entry points: If you have an urgent need to enter Oman, you might consider checking if an alternate port of entry has faster processing times or other expedited options.
Prepare for contingencies: In case your visa does not arrive in time, have a backup plan, such as rescheduling your flight or exploring alternative travel arrangements.
In urgent situations, it’s crucial to stay in close communication with your visa sponsor and follow their guidance to minimise disruptions to your travel plans.
If your Oman e-visa application is rejected, carefully review the reasons for rejection. Once you identify the issue, address it by gathering the necessary documents or correcting any errors in your application. Then, you can reapply, ensuring that all requirements are accurately met this time.
If you find the process challenging, consider seeking assistance from an Atlys visa expert to guide you through the reapplication process.
Yes, if your Oman visa application is rejected when applying through Atlys, the fee will be refunded, subject to applicable terms and conditions. However, if you apply through other channels, the visa fee is generally non-refundable.
Yes, you can easily extend the Oman tourist visa. After the expiration of your first stay, you can generally extend it three times. You can easily do first-time extensions online on the Royal Oman Police Portal. For subsequent extensions, you will need to visit the DGPCS Office, Al Khuwair, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman.
Planning to stay in Oman longer? Apply for a 30-day Oman tourist visa and let Atlys handle the process for you, so you can focus on enjoying your trip!
If the visitor overstays in Oman, there is a fine of OMR 10.000 for each day of overstay. Additionally, overstaying can also lead to legal consequences and may affect your ability to enter Oman or other countries again in the future.
Therefore, to avoid these issues, if you wish to stay longer, seek an extension before your visa expires.

A Seamless Visa Experience
Applying for visas has always been one of the least exciting parts of travel for me. The paperwork, long wait times, and uncertainty can often take the joy out of planning a trip. But with Atlys, the process was surprisingly smooth, efficient, and stress-free. I’ve used Atlys to apply for visas to Oman, Hong Kong, and Egypt, and each time, the experience has been seamless. The app itself is well-designed, intuitive, and incredibly easy to use. Uploading documents was a breeze—no unnecessary back-and-forth, just a simple step-by-step process that took the guesswork out of visa applications. One of the things I appreciated most was the transparency. Atlys keeps you informed at every stage, so you’re never left wondering about the status of your application. And the best part? The visas arrived on time, exactly when they were promised. No delays, no last-minute panic—just a hassle-free process that allowed me to focus on the excitement of my upcoming travels. For frequent travelers like me, having a reliable visa service is invaluable. Atlys has made the entire process so smooth that I wouldn’t think twice before using them again. If you’re looking for an easy, efficient, and dependable way to handle your visa applications, Atlys is definitely worth trying

Surprisingly Swift: How Omans E-Visa Exceeded My Expectations
Honestly I wasn't expecting the team to deliver at they promised. After assuming that I will be issued an e-visa from Oman's official e-visa site, it was pretty late by the time I realized it came with conditions. Our flight was on Monday and I had raised the visa request the previous week on a Monday or a Tuesday (pretty darn late). Although the visa timeline was 3-5 working days, I was still issued a visa in about 4 days time.
