Working Holiday

Hi! My name is Maria, a Filipino. I hold graduate degrees in Economics from New Zealand and Australia.  I plan to work while traveling around the Middle East.  Am I allowed to seek employment while I am on holiday in Oman?  If so, is working as a tutor/instructor  possible in Oman schools even I don't go through the channels the OFWs pass through? Thanks in advance. Cheers!

The answer to your questions is "NO".
Working on a tourist / visit visa is "Illegal" in Oman and if caught, you'll face a deportation with an entry BAN.

Thanks schaz!
