Planning a trip to Oman? Compare today’s Omani rial exchange rates before you buy and see how much travel money you will receive for your pounds.
Oman is increasingly card-friendly, especially in Muscat, Salalah and larger hotels, but carrying some Omani rial cash is still a very good idea for taxis, souqs, small restaurants and travel into more remote areas.
The official currency is the Omani rial, with the international currency code OMR. One rial is divided into 1,000 baisa.
Current banknotes include:
The Central Bank of Oman issues the currency and operates the country’s domestic payment network.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted at:
Cash is particularly useful for:
Recent traveller guidance describes Oman as card-friendly in the cities but much more cash-oriented in traditional and rural settings. Muttrah Souq, smaller taxis, roadside stops and remote businesses are among the places where cash can be the easier option.
Taxi apps such as OTaxi and Yango are widely used in Muscat, but recent visitors have reported mixed experiences linking foreign cards. Having enough cash to pay the fare gives you a useful fallback.
For most visitors, the best combination is some Omani rial cash plus a suitable Visa or Mastercard.
Omani rials are available from a number of UK travel money providers.
Because the rial is a relatively high-value currency, even a modest difference in the exchange rate can noticeably affect how much currency you receive.
Compare the total number of Omani rials you will receive, including any delivery charges, rather than simply choosing the highest advertised exchange rate.
At besttravelmoney.com, relevant delivery charges are included in the comparison for your chosen order amount. This shows how much currency you will actually receive for your pounds.
Buying some rials before departure means you arrive with cash for your first taxi, tips, food and smaller purchases without immediately having to find an ATM.
ATMs are common in Muscat, Salalah and larger towns, but become less convenient when travelling into Oman’s mountains, desert or more isolated coastal areas.
Keep some smaller ½, 1 and 5 rial notes for taxis, tips and everyday purchases.
If an ATM or card terminal asks whether you want to be charged in pounds or Omani rials, choose Omani rials so your own card provider handles the conversion.
Take both. Cards are widely accepted in hotels, shopping centres and larger businesses, but Omani rial cash is useful for souqs, taxis, small restaurants and travel into rural areas.
Yes. Omani rials are available from a number of UK travel money providers for home delivery or collection. Compare the final amount received after any delivery charges.
Foreign currencies may occasionally be accepted by tourism businesses, but they should not be relied upon for everyday spending. Omani rials are the correct currency for shops, restaurants, taxis and local purchases.
