Connecting through another country?

This page covers a direct flight to Oman. If your route connects through a third country, that country may require its own transit visa — sometimes even for a short stop inside the airport between flights (a layover). Transit rules depend on your specific routing, so check the country you connect through separately, or analyse your full itinerary.

Check your phone coverage abroad

US travel advisory: Oman — Level 3 (Reconsider Travel)

WARN

The US State Department publishes these advisories for your route. Oman: Level 3 — Reconsider Travel (as of 2026-04-09). The State Department recommends reconsidering travel here; read the country page and check whether your specific destination falls in a higher-risk zone. This is a US State Department safety perspective, not an entry or boarding rule — it doesn't affect whether you can board, only what to be aware of on the ground. Travellers from other countries should also check their own government's advisory.

GCC nationals - move, reside, and work freely across the Gulf states

INFO

Your BH citizenship gives you the right, as a GCC national, to enter, reside, work, and own property across all six Gulf Cooperation Council states (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE) under the GCC Common Market. GCC nationals travel between member states on a national ID card - no passport or visa is required - and are treated as nationals for most economic activity. Bring your GCC national ID card; a passport also works.

GCC ID-card travel is your right - carry the card

WARN

GCC nationals cross internal Gulf borders on a national ID card, but if you are flying on a carrier or route that defaults to passport rules, check-in may ask for one. Carry your GCC national ID card and, if you have one, your passport; reference the GCC Common Market right of free movement if questioned.
