Why this verdict
South Korean citizens' entry guidance is based on the Oman Foreign Ministry entry-visas page and the linked ROP eVisa route for ordinary short visitor travel. This guidance is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short tourism/visitor travel only. Work, residence, study, business, sponsored visits, family routes, diplomatic/service passports, overland handling, airline checks, longer stays, extensions, residence transfer, exact ROP visa type and Omani border discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the Oman Foreign Ministry or ROP eVisa source before booking.
Conditional rules
- Longer stay, work or residence Visa required
The 14-day facility cannot be extended or transferred to a residence visa; longer stays and non-tourist purposes require the appropriate ROP visa route.
- Border, airline or document discretion Conditional
Entry depends on holding the required documents and on current carrier / Omani border handling for the exact itinerary.
