Passport validity is non-negotiable
Oman enforces the 6-month passport validity rule strictly. If your passport expires sooner, you'll be turned away at the airport — no exceptions. Double-check your passport before booking flights.
30 days is your limit
The visa-free entry is for a maximum of 30 days and cannot be extended. If you plan to stay longer, you'll need to exit and re-enter, or apply for a different visa type through the official e-visa portal before you travel.
What happens at the border

Arrive at Muscat International Airport
Follow the signs to 'Arrivals' and then to 'Immigration'. There are separate queues for GCC nationals and others — join the 'Foreigners' or 'All Passports' queue.
2
Present your passport at the immigration counter
Hand over your Polish passport. The officer will check your validity, may ask about your stay, and will stamp you in. No visa fee is charged for Polish citizens.
3
Collect your luggage and exit
After the stamp, proceed to baggage claim, then through customs. If you have nothing to declare, use the green channel.
