What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Omani immigration
At Muscat International Airport (or any other entry point), follow signs to 'Arrivals' and then 'Immigration'. Join the queue for 'Visa on Arrival' or 'All Passports' — don't go to the GCC nationals lane.
2
Present your passport
Hand over your passport to the immigration officer. They'll check your passport validity and may ask about your stay. Answer clearly and confidently.
3
Receive entry stamp
The officer will stamp your passport with a free entry permit. No payment is required. The stamp typically allows a stay of up to 14 days (check the stamp for exact dates).
4
Proceed to baggage claim
After getting your stamp, collect your luggage and exit through customs. If you have nothing to declare, use the green channel.
