Short answer: Oman joined the Apostille Convention in 2012, but Indian documents for Oman are still commonly attested through Oman’s own process. Since February 2025, Oman’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs offers an electronic attestation service for documents from India via Oman Post, so you no longer need to visit Oman’s missions. State and MEA attestation usually come first. Charges depend on the documents and current fees.
Oman’s attestation rules have shifted over the years, and many guides online are out of date. Here’s where things stand and what it costs.
How Oman attestation works now
- State attestation in India — HRD, SDM / Home Department or Chamber of Commerce.
- MEA attestation.
- Oman’s electronic attestation, applied for online through Oman Post’s attestation portal.
Because Oman is also an Apostille Convention member, some documents may be accepted with an MEA apostille. Practice varies by document and authority, so we confirm the route for your case.
