Omani citizens can visit Botswana visa-free for up to 90 days

Dubai: Omani citizens can travel to Botswana without a visa for stays of up to 90 days, the Sultanate’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has confirmed.

The ministry said Botswana had confirmed that Oman was not among the countries whose nationals are required to obtain a visa before travelling to the southern African country.

The visa exemption applies to holders of all types of Omani passports and allows travellers to remain in Botswana for a maximum of 90 days.

Omani citizens planning to travel must ensure their passports are valid for at least six months from the date of entry and contain at least three blank pages, the ministry said.

Travellers were also advised to obtain health insurance covering the full duration of their stay.

The ministry urged citizens to ensure they meet the entry requirements before travelling to avoid any difficulties upon arrival.
