Hello,
My wife and I live in the US, and we are spending 9 days of vacation in Oman (leaving next Friday 12/26, hopefully). My wife needs a visa pre-arranged to visit Oman (passport not on List A). She applied for an express visa at the Oman Embassy in Washington DC on Dec. 4, the ROP website shows that the visa has been issued since Dec. 16. Today is Dec. 19, I called the Oman embassy in DC, and they say that they haven't received the visa number by fax yet, which basically means that there is no visa available, and they still have her passport. With Christmas break in the US, it is becoming very very short. Is it possible to arrange for visa pickup at Muscat airport, and travel with just a copy of the page from the ROP visa status enquiry that says "visa issued"? Any suggestion in that regard?
Thanks!
