Oman’s Stability Reflected by Steady Passport Ranking

According to the creators of the 2017 Passport Index, the solidity and stability of Oman is reflected by the country’s steady passport ranking. Since 2015, when it comes to the Global Passport Power rank, Oman is ranked 56th in the world, having gone up one position.

Arton Capital, a global advisory firm that specialises in investor programmes, which helps people gain citizenship through investment has compiled the index which ranks the passports of the United Nations’ 193 countries and six territories, in order of the number of countries the holders of a particular passport can visit without first having to procure a visa or passport power. Last year, the rank remained unchanged.As per the vice president of Marketing for Arton Capital, Oman has been largely stable. Oman was ranked fifth among the six-nation alliance among the GCC countries with a global ranking of 58.

The ranking means that Omanis enjoys visa-free travel to 32 countries, a visa-on-arrival in 29 nations,  visa-free travel to the other five Gulf Cooperation Council nations and E-visas  to a further 15 nations.

Finally, as summers are quite hot in the country, Omanis aspire to travel abroad usually to  places in Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
