Do Finland passport holders need a visa to visit OM?
Finnish ordinary passport holders can enter Oman visa-free for tourism for up to 14 days. No prior application or visa-on-arrival is needed, but you must show a confirmed hotel booking, return ticket, travel health insurance, and a passport valid for at least 6 months. Finland is on Oman's "first group" visa-exemption list, so Finnish ordinary passport holders may enter Oman without any visa for a single short tourist visit of up to 14 days. This unilateral exemption, introduced by the Royal Oman Police to boost tourism, replaced the older paid eVisa requirement for these nationalities. The 14-day period is non-extendable and cannot be converted to a residence visa. At immigration you must be able to prove a confirmed hotel reservation, an onward/return ticket, valid travel health insurance, and sufficient funds, and your passport must be valid for no less than six months from the date of entry. If you intend to stay longer than 14 days, you must instead apply online for a paid tourist eVisa (e.g., the 30-day or one-year multiple-entry options) through the official Royal Oman Police eVisa portal before travel. There is no Schengen consideration here because Oman is not a Schengen state; the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to entry into Oman.
