Emergency numbers, how to stay online, and the apps locals use. Save this page before you fly.

Emergency numbers

Tap a number to call it.

Before you go

  • WhatsApp and FaceTime calls are often restricted on local Omani networks and Wi-Fi. On TripoSIM they work for the same reason as in the UAE: the eSIM connects as international roaming. If a call ever does not connect, contact our support.

Mobile data in Oman

  • Good 4G and 5G in Muscat and the main towns.
  • Signal can be weak or missing in the desert and some mountain areas.
  • Your eSIM connects as roaming on local networks, so turn on Data Roaming for it when you land. There are no extra roaming charges.

Useful apps

  • Google Maps: driving directions and places
  • Talabat: food delivery
  • Google Translate: point your camera at Arabic signs and menus

Good to know

  • 9999 is the number for police, ambulance and fire.
  • Download offline maps on Wi-Fi before desert or mountain drives.
