When you have already been issued a visit visa, how do you hope to get a second visa issued before the first one expires ?!?

It will not be issued - for obvious reasons !

Why are you holding on to your Express Visa for 22 days without getting on the flight to Muscat ?

Usually, upon your entry with the Express Visa and prior to the completion of your visa's expiry period, your employer will get it converted into an Employment Visa.

It is your employer's responsibility to advise you correctly on these basics.

For companies to get an 'Employment Visa' they have to meet various criteria, the most critical one being their 'Omanisation Target'.

This is one of the main reasons for the inordinate delays which the selected candidates have to endure before receiving their employment visas.

Perhaps that's why your visa is getting delayed too.

To get a grip on the processes involved you have to read through the various posts in the forum on the same subject.

I think that the term of the visa is only for entry purposes.  Mine was for three months.  But when I entered, they put in a two year visa in my passport.  No questions asked.
