Where and how to file the application

The application is filed online on the eVisa platform of the Royal Oman Police. The home page states that you must first log in to the eVisa system to start an application, and asks the user whether they are already registered. The “Apply for a Visa” page presents a registration form, with mandatory fields marked by an asterisk and a password policy.

The home page names the tourist visa (“Tourist Visa”), the work visa (“Work Visa”) and the residency visa (“Residency Visa”). The visa types page, for its part, organizes the offering into four families and asks you to select a family to display the full list of available permits; that list does not appear without interaction and was therefore not read.

Steps in the procedure

  1. Create an account on the eVisa platform, or log in if already registered.
  2. Open the visa types section and select the family matching the situation (visit or residence, with or without a sponsor) to display the available permits.
  3. Fill in the online application form: the platform warns that applications containing incorrect information are rejected.
  4. Track the progress of the application from the platform's tracking section.
  5. The other steps are not stated on the portal consulted.

Documents mentioned by the authority

The exact list depends on the visa type and on the individual situation; only the official page is authoritative.

After the decision

The decision rests with the Royal Oman Police. The platform includes an application tracking section, accessible from the home page.
