Attestation Services
The Foreign Ministry provides a range of document attestation services.

The Foreign Ministry provides services to help Omani citizens, foreign residents, businesses, and visitors when they need to have documents attested.

Document attestation is necessary when a person has an important official document, related to their personal, family or business affairs, and needs it certified as original.

The Foreign Ministry is committed to improving consular services and to expedite attestation transactions.

The Ministry has therefore launched an electronic attestation system in cooperation with Oman Post. This operates across Oman and overseas. Please see below for further information.

Please note that attestation services are no longer offered directly through the Foreign Ministry Consular Department or any attestation offices of the Ministry.

All services are now provided via Oman Post, either electronically or through its selected branches.

The following Oman Post branches currently provide attestation services:

  • Muscat – Al Mataar Al Murtafa’at Branch
  • Muscat – Qurum Branch
  • A'Sharqiyah – Sur Branch
  • Al Batinah – Sohar Branch
  • A'Dakhiliyah – Nizwa Branch
  • Dhofar – Central Salalah Branch
  • Al Buraimi – Al Buraimi Branch
  • Musandam – Khasab Branch
  • Musandam – Madha Branch

Individuals both Omani and non-Omani who need to have their documents attested by the Foreign Ministry may use the electronic platform or, if necessary, they may visit the nearest Oman Post branch across the Sultanate listed above.

Agents and representatives of companies and institutions must submit documents
via Oman Post, either electronically or through its selected branches.

There is a range of fees for these services as shown below.

Electronic Attestation service via Oman Post

The Foreign Ministry has launched an electronic attestation system in cooperation with Oman Post.

This is in accordance with the Ministry’s commitment to providing high-quality consular services, supporting the digital transformation process within the framework of Oman Vision 2040, facilitating procedures for service recipients, and enhancing the digitisation of transactions.

This service is being activated in a number of sister and friendly countries, with the aim of enabling beneficiaries to complete the attestation process by submitting applications electronically without having to visit the Sultanate of Oman’s Embassies or Consulates abroad.

The countries in which the service has been launched so far include: the GCC countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE)  as well as: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Egypt, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Korea, the Netherlands, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Thailand and the UK.
