This article has been changed in the past months to claim that now citizens from 103 countries can visit Oman visa-free for 10 (14?) days. However no credible source is provided for this, only a news website (which does not even provide the list of the 103 countries). |

You can for example check out with IATA's Timatic that Peruvian and Mexican passportholders do need a visa to enter the country, unlike the info provided in this page. |

Could anyone provide (if indeed true) a credible source of the 103 visa-free countries? Otherwise the article should be reverted to its 2019 version. |

This is the proclamation from the foreign ministry of Oman regarding their new visa policy in English: |

So, it is highly probable that Oman, on a governmental level, offers citizens from 103 countries visa free access to the Sultanate. |

Thank you but both links provided are news sites, and say Oman is "to give" the visa-free access, not that it has been confirmed. As per Timatic (https://www.united.com/en/us/timatic) which is the site airlines use to obtain visa requirement information, Peru is NOT visa-free allowed for Oman for example, even though the wiki article says it is. Please update the visa-free map as it contains wrong information, based on a news article and not on official government sources. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/190.239.111.234|190.239.111.234]] ([[User talk:190.239.111.234#top|talk]]) 15:29, 15 January 2022 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

[edit]This article has been changed in the past months to claim that now citizens from 103 countries can visit Oman visa-free for 10 (14?) days. However no credible source is provided for this, only a news website (which does not even provide the list of the 103 countries).
