add remove What is OK to Board (OTB) and why is it needed?
Due to an expansion in fake visas to Oman, many Indian passengers were deported back in the past. In order to control the fake visa issuance and any fraudulent activities; airlines and sponsors double check the Oman Visa and Air tickets before departure and only after checking the visa authenticity, airlines update visa message in the respective PNR.
-

The Airline verifies the Oman Visa and only then updates an Ok to Board message against the PNR. Airlines generally will take at least 24-48 working hours to update PNR after issuance of the Oman VISA.
-
add remove What is the main purpose behind updating the OTB?
Your airline mandates you to update OTB message in the PNR primarily to confirm the legitimacy of your Oman Visa as well as other relevant travel documents, thereby eliminating the chances of travellers making entry to the country with a forged visa and subsequently getting deported by the Oman immigration.
-
add remove What if my OTB status is not updated?
In such circumstances, your airline has the complete right to disapprove your boarding. To resolve this issue at the earliest, do not delay getting in touch with our Qatar Visa Experts.

Oman travel guide
Poised on the southern end of the Arabian Peninsula, Oman shares borders with the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Yemen — but it’s distinctively a world of its own. The country has an embracing society that warmly welcomes visitors; the people are incredibly friendly. Its robust infrastructure also makes exploring its treasure trove of desert, lush green oases and long coastlines very easy and pleasant.Read more
Unlike neighbouring Gulf countries like the UAE and Bahrain, Oman has maintained a traditional aesthetic and, for many, a traditional way of life, from the national dress—still worn by most citizens—to the arabesque, low architecture of the cities, offering a truly authentic cultural experience.Tourists that come to the country quickly discover the wealth of activities that can be done in Oman’s seas and deserts. Not only are Oman’s beaches good for swimming, some of them are also the breeding grounds of protected sea turtles who come to the shores every July to October to lay eggs, a sight not to be missed. Heading inland, visitors will come upon the vast desert that is the Rub al Khali, the Empty Quarter, a territory it shares with Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates. The vast sand dunes are the perfect places to do desert excursions aboard either a camel or a 4x4 truck.
Often bypassed in favour of its glamourous neighbour, the United Arab Emirates, Oman is commonly referred to as the 'true Arabia' where Bedouin tradition, historic forts and desert dunes work to form one exotic package.
From glistening beaches along the gulf to sweeping sandy plains and bona fide oasis towns, a holiday in Oman will keep your senses stimulated all the way from Salalah to Shinas.
