## What your family receives in Oman

**Omani rials (OMR)**, delivered by Swift to their bank account in Oman. Accounts held in USD or EUR can get those instead.
Wise doesn't publish a per-transfer limit or the receiving-bank fees for OMR.

Cash pickup and mobile wallets aren't available, only bank accounts.

## What you need from your family

Their **IBAN** (or the account number if their bank has no IBAN), their bank's **SWIFT/BIC code**, and their **name, city, address and post code** exactly as the bank has them. The full Swift form, field by field: [how to send money with Wise](https://exchangesteps.com/how-to-send-money-with-wise).

### IBAN or account number in Oman?

Wise's IBAN guide has no page for Oman, so we don't list a format. Ask your family to get the IBAN from their bank if it has one, and the plain account number if it doesn't. Wise prefers the IBAN whenever there is one.

### SWIFT codes of the main banks in Oman

| Bank | SWIFT / BIC (main code) |
|---|---|
| Bank Muscat | BMUSOMRXXXX |
| National Bank of Oman | NBOMOMRXXXX |
| Bank Dhofar | BDOFOMRUXXX |
| Sohar International | BSHROMRUXXX |
| Oman Arab Bank | OMABOMRUXXX |

We took each bank's main code (ending in XXX) from Wise's Swift directory on 23 October 2026. Some banks have separate branch codes, so it's worth asking your family to confirm theirs.

## Sending to Oman from the UK, the US, Europe, Canada and Switzerland

Wise takes payment in your local currency: from the UK in GBP (bank transfer, usually seconds); from the US in USD (ACH, wire or card); from the euro area in EUR (SEPA); from Canada in CAD (Interac e-Transfer and others); from Switzerland in CHF (from a Swiss bank; instant transfers arrive in 15-30 minutes).
OMR appears on Wise's Oman page when you pay from EUR and CHF. From any other currency, check the app: if OMR isn't offered, send USD or EUR.

## How long does a transfer to Oman take?

On Friday 23 October 2026, Wise's Oman page gave "by Tuesday, 27 October" for a transfer paid in CHF.
Conversion can take up to 2 working days, then Wise says the Swift payout usually takes 1-6 working days. Before you pay, the app shows when your own transfer should arrive.

## Fees for sending to Oman

The fee, the exchange rate and the amount that arrives are all on screen before you confirm. On Swift, intermediary banks may still take fees along the way. More on how Wise prices a transfer: [Wise fees](https://exchangesteps.com/wise-fees).

## If you live in Oman

Opening an account works, but it can't hold a balance, you **can't pay in OMR**, and the Wise card isn't sold in Oman. A card issued in Oman paying in USD is treated as an international card, so it costs more. Sending home to Egypt? See [send money to Egypt with Wise](https://exchangesteps.com/wise-send-money-to-egypt) and [Wise in the Arab world](https://exchangesteps.com/wise-supported-countries).

## FAQ

**Does Wise work in Oman?**
You can send there: OMR, USD or EUR to an Omani bank account by Swift. Living in Oman, you can sign up, but you can't hold a balance or pay in OMR.

**What's the SWIFT code of Bank Muscat?**
Wise's Swift directory lists **BMUSOMRXXXX** as its main code. Banks can have branch codes too, so check the code on your family's bank documents.

**Can I send money from Oman to Egypt with Wise?**
Not in OMR: Wise doesn't accept OMR as a payment currency. Wise allows USD by card or Swift for people outside the US, but a card from Oman paying in USD counts as an international card and costs more. Check the full price in the calculator first.

**Does my family need a Wise account to receive the money?**
No. The money goes to their bank account in Oman. They only need to give you the account details and the bank's SWIFT code.

**How long does Wise take to Oman?**
Usually 1-6 working days for the Swift payout, Wise says, on top of the time your payment takes to reach Wise. On 23 October 2026, a transfer paid in CHF that day showed "by Tuesday, 27 October" on Wise's Oman page.
