Muscat: The Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Information Technology (MTCIT) said that it is facilitating the entry and exit of foreign and domestic trucks through Omani ports, in coordination with the Royal Oman Police (Directorate General of Customs) and the Public Authority for Special Economic Zones and Free Zones
The measures include organizing and accelerating the entry of foreign and domestic trucks through ports, recording all operations in a unified and documented manner via the OneWB, and electronic tracking of truck movements to ensure transparency and adherence to operational schedules, and transferring of containers between trucks, or the exchange of trailers and their movement to ports or logistics hubs
Other measures include direct contracting with Omani truck drivers through the OneWB electronic transport documents platform, allocation of Fast Track lanes for high-performing, compliant trucks, streamlining procedures for oversized and heavy trucks through expedited land transport permits at Omani land borders, and operations throughout the week, 24/7, with flexible scheduling for entry and exit without delays
MTCIT called on all beneficiaries of land transport services to cooperate in implementing these procedures, and any operational or regulatory updates will be announced in due course through the Ministry's official channels.
