Oman Entry Visa Details for Travelers from Botswana

Possibly. Oman’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that the husband, wife and children of a national eligible for its 14-day visa exemption may also benefit from the facility, even if they hold a different nationality. As a Botswana passport holder travelling with a British spouse, you should carry proof of your relationship, such as your marriage certificate, and confirm your eligibility with the Royal Oman Police before departure. The exemption is subject to Oman’s entry conditions, so do not assume that your spouse’s British passport automatically guarantees visa-free entry for you. If you do not qualify, check the appropriate pre-arranged Oman visa option.

A tourist sponsor only supports a short visit. We arrange a licensed Omani company to file your sponsored tourist visa, and it takes responsibility for your stay and departure; you cannot work on this visa. A work sponsor is an employer hiring you, which involves a contract, labour approval and residence formalities. To start a tourist application we need your passport scan, photo, travel dates and hotel details.

If you applied with us, our team checks the status, answers any request for extra documents and tells you what the sponsor or ROP still needs. If you filed yourself, the ROP eVisa call centre is +968 22848200 from outside Oman, or email Info-OmaneVisa@rop.gov.om. ROP publishes no fixed processing time, so avoid non-refundable bookings until the visa is approved.
