The Civil Aviation Authority of Oman has lifted the travel ban on 18 countries including India and Pakistan.
People who have been vaccinated against the novel coronavirus can travel to the country, a report by the Times of Oman stated.
According to the new travel guidelines, passengers have to carry their Covid-19 vaccination certificates containing a QR code stating that they have received two doses of the vaccine. “The last dose is required to have been received not less than 14 days ahead of the estimated time of arrival.”

Travellers arriving in Oman need to get tested for the virus 96 hours before boarding the flights. Those with a negative test result are exempted from quarantine.
Passengers under the age of 18 are, on the other hand, exempted from the vaccine requirement.
The new directives will come into effect from September 1.
Earlier this year, Oman placed a travel ban on Pakistan over rising coronavirus cases in the country.
