Dear All

I have a question.

I am working in Muscat and have finally obtained a family joining visa (resident visa) for my wife and daughter. They have arrived here and now we want to go to RPO for their residence card. My question is that does the RPO need to accompany us or I can just take my residence card and passport along with their passports for issuance of their residence cards?

The sanad centre informed me that no PRO is necessary as the family joining visa is on my residence card. I just want to confirm to save us a trip.

@Haider Ali Shah1988 You do not require the PRO to accompany you. You can get this done yourself for your dependents.

@SG88_

Hello. It's a mix of blood test, urine test, eye sight and chest xray.

Will be happy to help with more information as I recently went through a lot to get my spouse and child residence visa on my own.

@Jyothi Sashi Thank you. I can confirm that only you need to be present for their residence card. Thanks once again.
