The Visa on Arrival is also available, but for a smoother process, prior application is recommended. Make sure that your passport is valid for at least six months.
The Muscat International Airport (MCT) is the largest and best-equipped airport in Oman. It offers numerous international connections and modern facilities. From here, taxis and shuttle buses go to the city. For an authentic experience, you may also consider a regional airport if you want to explore rural areas.
The local currency is the Omani Rial (OMR). Credit cards are accepted in most hotels, restaurants, and shops, but it is advisable to have cash for more rural places or smaller shops. ATMs are widely available, and there are numerous exchange offices to get cash for your trip.
Vaccinations are recommended, but not mandatory. A travel insurance is strongly recommended to cover unforeseen medical or travel issues. Check if your insurance also provides coverage abroad. Discounts can often be achieved by purchasing early or by comparing providers.
