Will I need to have airport transit visa for Oman? I am a Pakistani citizen and traveling on Oman Air from Karachi to Amsterdam. I have schengen visa and my flight connection is on Muscat so I will have to wait 3 hours at Muscat airport for my next flight. Please guide.

Hi owais.truefriend,

Your stopover is just for 3 hours only. Even if it were loner, as long as you will not be exiting the airport, you do not need a transit visa. You can wait in the terminal and catch your connection easily - provided you have the boarding card pre-issued.
