• Answer:

  Assuming that your friend is a Pakistani or Indian coming from his home country, he will receive his visa is upon arrival in Oman at the airport only if he purchased a complete tourist package from specific tourist companies in their countries which are approved by Ministry of Commerce & Industry. The package to include the accommodation and the air ticket using a national airline i.e. Oman Air or Gulf Air. Fee: OMR 6 or its equivalent in other currencies. This visa is valid for one month and can be extended for another month by paying OMR 6 again. The extension application should be presented to the Directorate General of Passport & Residency and its sections in the regions. As per the law, a fine of OMR 10 per day is charged for an overstay beyond the validity of the visa. The validity of your friend's passport should not be lees than 6 months.
