Oman approves Covaxin shots for travel without quarantine
People in India and other countries who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 with the Covaxin jab can now travel to Oman without the requirement for quarantine on arrival.
The development comes after the government of the Sultanate of Oman approved Covaxin as an accepted vaccination against the coronavirus.
All passengers from India who have received two doses of Covaxin at least 14 days before the estimated arrival date will now be able to travel to Oman without the requirement of quarantine. All other COVID-19 related requirements/conditions, such as pre-arrival RT-PCR tests, shall be applicable for such passengers.
The acceptance of Covaxin as an approved COVID jab will significantly ease travel to Oman for Indian and other nationals who have been administered the vaccine. Passengers who have been injected with AstraZeneca – Covishield jabs are already permitted to come to Oman without quarantine.
