Oman to open visas for Bangladeshis in 12 categories

The government of Oman has announced granting visas to Bangladeshi nationals in 12 categories, including family, visit, doctors, engineers, nurses, teachers, accountants, investors, and official visas. This comes after Oman banned the issuance of visas for Bangladeshis across all categories on October 31, 2023, leading to a over 50% drop in their arrivals. The Bangladesh embassy had earlier stated that the visa ban would be temporary. Photo: Collected
