| Time
Time Zone: GMT + 4 Currency The national currency of Oman is the Rial. Although most shops will accept UAE Dihrams. Language There are a variety of languages spoken in the Sultanate, the most common are Arabic and English. Climate Oman is subject to seasonal changes like the more temperate regions of the world. The hottest months are June, July and August. The average day-time high is 40° C. Mid-October to March are the most pleasant months to visit Oman as daytime temperatures fall into the upper 20’s. The amount of rainfall varies with the seasons but is generally sparse and irregular. In the south most of the year's rainfall occurs during the summer monsoon (Khareef) months. In the north the opposite occurs. Here most rain comes from occasional winter storms which descend out of the eastern Mediterranean during the months of January through March, depositing an annual average of 10cm on the capital area. Border crossing In an effort to encourage tourism, Oman relaxed its visa regulations in late 2001. Visas are still required (except for citizens of other Gulf countries) but it is now possible for many foreign nationals (including those from the EU, the Americas, Australia and New Zealand) to obtain a visa at Muscat's Seeb airport, or at border crossings. These visas are valid for4 weeks.. Tourist visas obtained through the Sultanate's embassies abroad are valid for three weeks. One month extensions are available through Oman Experiences. A nominal fee is payable to cross into the Musandam peninsula and a road pass is necessary if you plan to travel by car. If your passport shows any evidence of travel into Israel you will be denied entry to Oman. As always, check with authorities for any changes. |
