Hi vidhu_aqua,

An express visa can be taken within 24-48 hours max.

Medicals are not required for taking an express visa.

To bring the family, the employee must be a registered resident of Oman - meaning he must be on an employment visa, holding a resident card.

Family can be brought only after the employee completes 6 continuous months of employment and his minimum salary must be R.O. 600/- nett to be eligible to apply for family visa.

Good luck.

Hi vidhu_aqua,

Unless your husband's employer is confident of getting his employment visa soon (enough) they would not ask for him to come in an express visa. But exactly how long it would take is anybody's guess. And the best ones to answer to that query would be your husband's employers only. No one else.

Yes, you can visit him on a visit visa before the family joining visa can be arranged. The visit visa will be valid for 3 months and is extendable by another 1 month.

Best of luck.
