How to apply

What entry costs

Compulsory government charges only. Service fees and anything optional are excluded, which is what makes the figure comparable.

Yellow fever certificate

Arriving from Syria, no yellow fever certificate is required: WHO does not list Syria as a transmission risk. It can still be demanded if you have been in a risk country shortly before arriving.

Driving on a Syria license

Syria is party to the 1949 Geneva Convention and Oman to the 1968 Vienna Convention. They share none, so no treaty obliges Oman to recognize an International Driving Permit issued in Syria.

Whether a permit is required alongside your national license is set by national road law, which we have not checked for this pair.
