Why do people in Oman get a US number?

Studying in the US

Many Omani students go to US universities. A US number before you fly helps with university, housing and app sign-ups, and family can keep it as a US contact.

WhatsApp Business for US customers

Sell to American customers on WhatsApp Business with a US number, and keep your personal WhatsApp on your Omani number.

US codes and online accounts

Google, Apple ID, Amazon and PayPal sent their codes to our numbers in our tests. Some banks refuse internet numbers.

Travel and trips to the US

Outside Oman, calls in the app usually work well on a good connection, with 300 minutes a month to the US and Canada.

How do I set up WhatsApp on a US number?

It takes about 10 minutes, and your usual WhatsApp can stay exactly as it is.

1
Pay and pass the ID check
Choose the yearly or monthly plan, pay, and do the short ID check (photo ID + selfie) in the TripoSIM app.
2
Choose your number
Pick a US state or area code in the app. Your number is set up straight away.
3
Open WhatsApp Business
Keep your usual WhatsApp on your local number and use WhatsApp Business for the US number. Both apps work side by side on one phone.
4
Enter your number with +1
Choose United States (+1), type your 10-digit US number and ask for the code by SMS. The code shows up in the TripoSIM app under Texts.
5
Protect it
In WhatsApp, turn on two-step verification (Settings › Account) and set a PIN. Keep your plan active: a released number can go to someone else.

Students: set up WhatsApp on your US number before you fly, so your US contacts can reach you from day one and your Omani WhatsApp stays with family.

WhatsApp last sent its code to a TripoSIM US number in our tests on October 18, 2026.

Do calls work in Oman?

Internet calling apps have often been restricted on Omani networks, and the rules can change. This can also affect calls in the TripoSIM app, so we cannot promise that calls will work inside Oman.

What still works: WhatsApp messages, texts from US senders (including verification codes) and voicemail reach the app over data. Outside Oman, calls usually work well on a good connection.

Please follow local rules on internet calling where you use the app. We do not recommend trying to get around them.

What is the time difference with the US?

How far ahead Muscat is of the main US time zones:

US city	US summer time	US winter time
New York	8 hours ahead	9 hours ahead
Chicago	9 hours ahead	10 hours ahead
Los Angeles	11 hours ahead	12 hours ahead

When it is 9:00 in New York, it is 18:00 in Muscat in US winter and 17:00 in US summer.

A US morning is your late afternoon or evening. If you study in the US, the app shows US times for your calls while family in Oman can still message you on WhatsApp.

How can I pay from Oman?

You are charged in US dollars. $100 a year is about OMR 38.5, and $12.99 a month is about OMR 4.99, because the rial is pegged to the dollar. Your bank may add a small foreign-currency fee.
Pay with Visa, Mastercard or Amex. Apple Pay and Google Pay work when your phone offers them. Switch on online payments abroad in your bank app first.
You can also pay in USDT (TRC20) for one month or one year. A plan paid in USDT does not renew by itself: we email you before it ends.

What can the US number not do?

Calls out reach US and Canadian numbers only. You cannot call local numbers or other countries with it.
You can receive texts from US and Canadian senders. Sending texts is not included.
WhatsApp and the popular apps we tested send their codes to it, but some banks and a few services refuse internet numbers, so we cannot guarantee every service.
It cannot call 911 or any emergency service. Use a local mobile line in an emergency.
Calls and texts need internet and the TripoSIM app, with notifications and the microphone allowed.
If your plan ends, the number is kept for 30 days (90 days on the monthly plan) and then released. Keep the plan active while WhatsApp runs on it.
