Do Vietnamese citizens need a visa for Oman?

Visa required in advance

Vietnamese passport holders need a visa for Oman, arranged before you travel. Depending on the country, that means an online application, a sponsor or agent, or an appointment at a visa centre. If you hold a US visa, UK visa, Schengen visa or similar, it can be easier: see below.

Apply on the official site: evisa.rop.gov.om

What this means for your trip

Start early. Some countries take the whole application online; others need a visa-centre appointment for fingerprints, and waits can be long in peak season.
