International Shipping from / to Oman

Who ships to Oman?

Oman Shipping Company is an Oman based ocean cargo shipping company that does a superb job with sea shipping.  Maersk Line Shipping, Badar Shipping Agencies, MSC, and Dynamic Freight Shipping all offer cargo shipping to Oman as well.  Voovit, FedEx and UPS all handle parcel shipping there, but there are many other shipping companies that are worth looking into before you choose which shipping company to help you ship to Oman. 

Security concerns when shipping to Oman

There are, unfortunately, some concerns over Iranian attacks on International shipments headed to Oman so you will want to be aware of this when shipping to the country.  They are mainly focused on oil and other high end commodities, but that does not mean that your shipment won't get damaged or lost in the interim if there is a problem.  Because of this, it may be safer to send your goods via air mail if possible.  If you have to use ocean cargo freight liners, be sure to pull some insurance on your shipment just in case. 

Transit times when shipping to Oman

Shipping via ocean cargo freight liners to Oman are going to be your longest transit times, but you can and will save quite a bit of money taking this mode of transportation.  Air cargo shipping is typically your fastest bet, but the price tag does go up when you choose this mode.  It is best to weigh the cost versus the time factors when comparing shipping options so you get the best avenue picked for your shipping needs. 

Shipping destinations in Oman

The port of Muscat, or Port Sultan Qaboos, is where most ocean cargo freight liners will be delivering your goods.  The port of Oman will be accepting most oversized shipments such as tractors and concrete machines.  From there, they can be shipped out or picked up from the port, depending on the permits and paperwork that is filed based on the type of merchandise it is that is being delivered to the country.  Your shipment must of course pass through Customs before being allowed in though.
