Muscat: The Civil Aviation Authority on Wednesday issued a new circular adding the Indian-made Covid-19 vaccine, Covaxin to the list of approved vaccines for traveling to Oman without quarantine.
With this, 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 the pre-arrival RT-PCR test shall be applicable for such passengers, the Indian Embassy said in a statement, welcoming the decision.
This notification will significantly ease travel to Oman for Indian nationals who have taken Covaxin. Passengers who have taken AstraZeneca / Covishield are already permitted to travel to Oman without quarantine.
