Processing time
The processing time for an Oman tourist visa may vary based on how quickly we process applications we’ve already received, whether your application is complete, and how long it takes you to respond to any question or requests we may have (for example, the need for additional supporting documents).
For most applications, the processing doesn’t take more than a few days if the information is correct. That is why it is crucial to double-check the data you provide: any errors, mistakes, or incomplete boxes may cause delays.

How long can Italian citizens stay in Oman with an eVisa?
With an Oman tourist visa, Italian passport holders can stay in Oman for up to one month (30 days). The permitted period of stay is the same both under single-entry and multiple-entry online visas.
