How much does a Turkey e-Visa cost for Omani citizens in 2026?

The Turkey e-Visa costs USD 50 (approximately OMR 19) as of 2026. Payment is accepted by international credit or debit card. The fee is non-refundable if your application is rejected. Only apply through the official Turkish government site at evisa.gov.tr — third-party agencies charge significantly more for the same service.

What documents do Omani citizens need for the Turkey e-Visa?

Omani citizens need: (1) A valid Omani passport with at least 6 months validity beyond your Turkey travel dates. (2) A working email address to receive the e-Visa. (3) A credit or debit card for the USD 50 fee. (4) Your intended travel dates and accommodation address in Turkey. A return flight booking and hotel confirmation are not required for the online application, but Turkish immigration officers may ask for them at the airport.

How long can Omani citizens stay in Turkey?

With a Turkey e-Visa, Omani citizens can stay up to 30 days per entry. The e-Visa is valid for 180 days from the issue date with multiple entry allowed, meaning you can leave and re-enter Turkey multiple times within that 180-day window as long as each stay does not exceed 30 days and your total time in Turkey does not exceed 90 days within any 180-day period.

How long does Turkey e-Visa approval take for Omani passports?

Most Turkey e-Visa applications from Omani citizens are approved within 24–72 hours. In rare cases it can take up to 3 business days. Apply at least one week before your travel date to allow buffer time. You will receive the approved e-Visa by email in PDF format — print it or save it on your phone and present it alongside your passport at Turkish immigration.

Who Is Eligible?

Omani citizens holding a valid Omani passport are eligible to apply for a Turkey e-Visa for tourism or business purposes. As of 2026, the Turkish government classifies Oman under the e-Visa eligible countries list, meaning you do not need to apply at a Turkish embassy or consulate.

The e-Visa is valid for tourism, visiting family or friends, transit, and short business trips such as attending conferences, meetings, or trade fairs. It does not permit work or study in Turkey. For work or long-term study, you must apply for the appropriate visa category at the Turkish Embassy in Muscat.

Important — Passport Validity Rule

Your Omani passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned departure date from Turkey. If your passport expires within 6 months, renew it before applying. Apply for passport renewal at the Royal Oman Police (ROP) Civil Status portal: rop.gov.om.

How to Apply — Step-by-Step

Visit evisa.gov.tr — the only official government site. Avoid third-party sites that charge extra fees for the same service. The official site has "Republic of Türkiye" in the header.

Select your nationality and travel document

Choose "Oman" as your nationality and "Ordinary Passport" as your travel document type. The system will confirm you are eligible for an e-Visa.

Enter your personal and travel details

Fill in your full name (exactly as in your passport), passport number, date of birth, passport expiry date, intended arrival date in Turkey, and your email address.

Pay the USD 50 fee

Enter your credit or debit card details. The charge will appear on your statement as "REPUBLIC OF TURKEY E-VISA". Print or save the payment confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Omani citizens get a Turkey visa on arrival?

No. As of 2026, Omani passport holders cannot get a Turkey visa on arrival. You must apply online for a Turkey e-Visa before departure at evisa.gov.tr. The e-Visa is approved within 24–72 hours and costs USD 50. It is valid for 180 days from the date of issue with a maximum stay of 30 days per visit.

Is the e-Visa the same as a Turkish sticker visa?

No. The e-Visa is electronic and linked to your passport number — there is no physical sticker. When you arrive in Turkey, the immigration officer sees your visa status digitally when they scan your passport. You still present the printed e-Visa confirmation as a secondary reference.

What if my Turkey e-Visa application is rejected?

If rejected, the USD 50 fee is non-refundable. Common rejection reasons: passport data mismatch, name spelling different from ticket, expired passport, or applying too far in advance (apply no more than 3 months before travel). If rejected, you can re-apply after correcting the issue. For persistent rejections, apply for a sticker visa at the Turkish Embassy in Muscat: Al Khuwair district, call +968 2469 2400.

Can I extend my Turkey e-Visa once I am in Turkey?

The e-Visa itself cannot be extended. However, if you want to stay beyond 30 days, you can apply for a short-term residence permit at the Turkish immigration office (Yabancılar Şubesi) within Turkey. This is a separate, more involved process requiring additional documentation. A simpler option for many Omani travellers is to exit Turkey briefly (e.g., a day trip to a neighbouring country) and re-enter on the same e-Visa if it is still within its 180-day validity window.
