Argentina to Oman visa requirements

Argentine ordinary passport holders can enter Oman visa-free for up to 14 days for tourism. Argentina is on Oman's "Group 1" visa-exemption list, so no advance visa is required for short visits. You must show a confirmed hotel booking, return ticket, health insurance, sufficient funds, and a passport valid at least 6 months. The 14-day exemption is non-extendable; for stays beyond 14 days, apply for a Royal Oman Police eVisa in advance. As of 2026, Argentina (ordinary passport) is one of the nationalities granted unilateral visa-free entry to Oman for tourism and short visits, under the Sultanate's visa-waiver scheme administered by the Royal Oman Police and confirmed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Argentine citizens are in "Group 1" of the exemption list, meaning they qualify directly without needing third-country residence or a prior visa. The visa-free stay is capped at 14 days and is non-extendable and non-convertible to residence. Entry conditions are checked at the border: a passport valid for at least six months, a confirmed return/onward ticket, confirmed hotel booking, valid travel/health insurance, and proof of sufficient funds. Oman is not part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Travelers planning to stay longer than 14 days, or who prefer a documented visa before arrival, should obtain an eVisa through the official Royal Oman Police portal (evisa.rop.gov.om), which offers tourist visas valid for up to 30 days. The visa-free channel is the best and cheapest option for a typical short tourist stay.
