Omani citizens with an ordinary passport need a visa for Vietnam, so the Vietnam visa for Omani citizens is the e-visa, valid for up to 90 days and from $47 (approx. OMR 18.09) all-in through us for single entry. Oman has a visa exemption agreement with Vietnam, but it covers only diplomatic, special and official passports.

Vietnam visa for Omani citizens: urgent cut-offs in Muscat time
Standard takes 5 to 7 working days. The urgent speeds use Vietnamese working days, which start at 8:00 in Vietnam, or 5:00 in Muscat.
| Order cut-off | Muscat time |
|---|---|
| Same day (Vietnam 14:15) | 11:15 |
| Super Urgent (Vietnam 15:30) | 12:30 |
| Emergency (Vietnam 17:30) | 14:30 |
| 1 working day (Vietnam 18:00) | 15:00 |
Example: you order on Tuesday at 6:00 in Muscat, which is 9:00 on Tuesday in Vietnam. Emergency arrives by 7:30, Super Urgent by 8:30 and Same day by 15:00, all in Muscat time. Ordered on Tuesday at 13:00 instead (16:00 in Vietnam), Emergency still arrives by 14:30, but Super Urgent and Same day have passed their cut-offs: Super Urgent arrives on Wednesday at 8:00 and Same day on Wednesday at 11:00.
The weekend window starts at Friday 15:00 in Muscat and ends on Sunday at 13:00. In that window, order the Weekend and public holidays speed before 12:20 and it arrives by 15:30 the same day. Our urgent e-visa page has every speed in Vietnam time.

Visa on arrival for Omani citizens
Omani citizens can use visa on arrival only when flying into Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang or Cam Ranh. You need an approval letter before you board and pay a $25 or $50 stamping fee at the airport.
It does not work for cruise ports or land borders. For most trips the e-visa is simpler; you can compare both when you choose a service.
Vietnam embassy in Oman
You do not need an embassy for an e-visa, which is issued online. For consular help, check the list of Vietnamese missions on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website (mofa.gov.vn) for the one that covers Oman.
Tips for Omani travelers
Two points help Omani travelers: reading the 2022 agreement correctly, and using the short time gap.
The 2022 agreement is for official passports only
The visa exemption agreement between Vietnam and Oman signed in April 2022 covers diplomatic, special and official passports. It does not cover ordinary Omani passports, which still need the e-visa.
Order in your morning
With only three hours between Muscat and Vietnam, an order placed at 8:00 in Muscat reaches Vietnam at 11:00, in the middle of its working day. The Same day cut-off falls at 11:15 in Muscat, so a morning order keeps every speed open.
eVisaVietnam.com is a private visa service operated by TK VIET NAM., JSC, not the Vietnamese government. You can apply yourself at evisa.gov.vn for US$25. If you want your files checked and a delivery time backed by a full refund, apply for your e-visa with us.
