Getting Oman Driving license by exchanging UAE license

Hi All,

I was in  Oman from 2006 - 2008. In the year 2007 I received my Oman Manual Driving license successfully. After that I received a opportunity in UAE and decided to shift there. Once I was in UAE, I gave the driving test by showing my Oman Driving license. I passed my test on an Automatic Car successfully, however I was been told to submit my original Oman Manual driving license in UAE and I was given UAE automatic driving license.
I am planning to move to Oman in the next month June . I heard that recently ROP has stopped issuing Oman Driving license in exchange of UAE Automatic Driving licence for male. I have the copy of my Oman Manual Driving license and which is valid till 2017. By showing this copy will ROP issue me an Oman Manual Driving License.
I am getting different answers from everywhere.
I would appreciate a response from someone who has gone through a similar situation.

You can surrender your UAE automatic driving license for an Oman automatic driving license.
You can also get a Oman manual driving license if you have a copy of your earlier license.

Good luck.

Thanks Crusaderzz for your reply

I have the copy of Oman Manual Driving License with me. Hope that they give me my license back.

I understand that from Jan 2014 all male resident in Oman can have only Manual License and hence I dont think they will give me Oman Automatic license.

Dear All


I asked from road police and also go to rop, they told me they will not change my automatic driving license (dubai) to Omani driving license but i can drive yallow number plate.

Hi,

I had showed my Omani Driving licence to Dubai police and they gave me direct computer test and direct road test, they issued an license for the same. I still kept my Omani Driving licence with me. Back in oman  i guess after expiry of my omani license they renewed and gave me a new one.

Its better if you let your Company PRO meet with the ROP and find an solution to it.

With Regards

Rajesh

Hi All,
I am having automatic transmission license from Dubai valid till 2023. My company wants me to use an automatic transmission car via rent a car service.
Can I use my Dubai Automatic License here in Oman as well? I mean without exchanging with Omani license.

Yes,
You can drive a rent-a-car, based on your UAE driving license.

confirm with ROP, I suffer alot

You Can use the Oman Driving license. I had similar circumstances and my Omani Drivers license is valid till 2018. I showed it to ROP and they issued me a new one after they had updated my details in the system.
