Oman has also removed several countries from the banned travel list.
In accordance with the pre-Covid system, all Omani citizens, residents, visa holders, those who do not require a visa to travel to Oman, and those who can obtain a visa upon arrival are allowed to enter the sultanate.
New Entry Guidelines
Passengers are required to present a Covid-19 vaccine certificate containing a QR Code stating that they have received two doses of a vaccine approved in Oman, or in cases where a single dose is approved by the health authorities of the sultanate, have received one dose of such vaccine.
The last dose is required to have been received not less than 14 days ahead of the estimated arrival time.
Passengers who present a pre-travel negative PCR test result are exempted from quarantine.

However, in cases of a positive PCR test result, the passenger shall be required to undergo mandatory health isolation for 10 days starting from the test date.
