Activating Plans via USSD
Most Omantel plans are managed through the 101# menu. By dialing this code, users can view their current balance, browse available "New Hayyak" plans, and activate specific internet add-ons directly from their handset. For a quick balance check, users can dial *100#.
Specialized Connectivity
Omantel provides tailored solutions for every type of user, from visitors arriving at Muscat International Airport to long-term residents seeking high-speed 5G performance.
5G Data Packages
With the expansion of 5G in Muscat and Sohar, Omantel has introduced high-speed data packs. These require a 5G-enabled device and a specific plan activation, providing ultra-low latency for gaming and streaming.
Postpaid "Baqa" Plans
Ideal for residents who prefer monthly billing. These plans often include unlimited local minutes and massive data allowances, removing the need for frequent manual recharges.
Tourist SIM Options
Designed for 7 to 15 days of use, offering a balanced mix of data and local calling minutes. Available at specialized Omantel kiosks at airport arrivals.
International Calling Boosters
Reduce per-minute rates to specific countries. Requires a base balance which can be replenished using standard recharge vouchers before activation.
Validity and Grace Periods
It is vital to note that each Omantel recharge has an expiry date. A 1 OMR recharge provides a shorter window of activity compared to a 10 OMR top-up.
Failure to recharge within the grace period can lead to the suspension of outgoing services. We recommend checking your balance regularly via *100# to avoid interruptions.
"Check balance before activating new monthly data bundles to ensure sufficient credit."
