Hi sir. I have one doubt on medical test for 2year old baby.  I heard that medical test is not needed for children under 12 years..But when my friend went for test,they said  certificate is needed for their 9month old baby and charged rs 500 and gave a certificate certifying that all the vaccines are done for the baby. Is that mandatory for visa ...
Plz help sir

Hi Saranya ajith,

Babies are exempt from getting any medical tests done - obviously !

But do make sure that your baby's immunisation records are all up to date. You might have to continue the course after coming to Oman.

I do not know what your friend was asked to do. Maybe they cheated her.
