Package forwarding to Oman
Since 3 August 2026, postal parcels into Oman worth up to OMR 100 may qualify for customs relief. Oman's big ports sit outside the Strait of Hormuz — and are carrying the region's overflow.
What to know before buying from Europe into Oman
Sea freight from Europe is no longer the default
Sohar, Duqm and Salalah sit outside the strait, so they have become the region's bypass hubs — congested, inside insurers' war-risk areas, and Duqm and Salalah were hit by drones in March 2026. For parcels, air is simpler.
The new relief is for postal consignments
The OMR 100 relief introduced in August 2026 applies to postal consignments, with conditions. Courier shipments and anything above the line are assessed normally.
Excluded goods are excluded at any value
Tobacco, prohibited and counterfeit goods, and products that breach standards get no relief. Excise goods also need Oman's digital tax stamp since January 2026.

What a parcel into Oman pays (2026)
Royal Oman Police Decision No. 110/2026, published on 2 August and in force since 3 August 2026, lets postal consignments worth up to OMR 100 qualify for customs relief, subject to conditions. Tobacco, prohibited goods, counterfeit goods and products that breach standards are excluded. Above the line — and for shipments outside the postal channel — most goods pay the GCC common tariff of 5%, and import VAT is 5%.
Whether VAT is still collected on relieved parcels is not clear from what we could read, so plan for it until customs confirms otherwise.
The OMR 300 figure some guides quote is the traveller allowance, not a parcel rule. Excise goods have needed Oman's digital tax stamp since 1 January 2026.
| Item | Rule (2026) |
|---|---|
| Postal relief | Up to OMR 100, with conditions (since 3 August 2026) |
| Excluded from relief | Tobacco, prohibited, counterfeit and non-conforming goods |
| Customs duty above the line | 5% GCC common tariff on most goods |
| VAT | 5%; treatment below OMR 100 to confirm |
| OMR 300 | Traveller allowance — not parcels |
Customs information updated November 2026. We generally ship DAP: duties, taxes and customs formalities at destination are handled by the recipient. Always check with your country's customs authority. Informational only — not customs or tax advice. The relief depends on conditions and on the shipping channel; confirm with Oman customs before committing to an order. Source: Royal Oman Police — Directorate General of Customs.
Why air is the practical route into the Gulf right now (November 2026)
Since early March 2026 the Strait of Hormuz has been effectively closed to normal commercial traffic: the US and Israeli strikes on Iran began on 28 February, and transits have been a small fraction of pre-crisis levels ever since. Jebel Ali, the region's main container port, handled around 90% fewer containers in the second quarter than a year earlier, and the Red Sea route is still under Houthi threat.
Oman is the exception: Sohar, Duqm and Salalah sit outside the strait and have become bypass hubs for the whole region, which makes them congested; they fall inside insurers' war-risk areas, and Duqm and Salalah were hit by drones in March 2026.
For a few boxes or a few pallets, a container with detours, bypass ports and trucking is no longer the tool. Our shipments fly from our warehouses in Europe, the USA, China and Hong Kong. Air is not immune either: airlines operate under EASA conflict-zone advisories, some routes are suspended at short notice and risk surcharges apply. So we do not promise transit times: the quoter shows the services available today and, for pallets, we confirm the routing when we quote.
- Boxes for individuals: buy from European or US shops, we combine them into one air shipment.
- Regular shippers (resellers, online shops): same warehouse, same routine, every week.
- Companies and pallets: we consolidate suppliers onto one pallet and fly it as air cargo.

Shops Gulf buyers forward from (2026)
These are shops we checked on their own websites: none of them delivers to the Gulf, or only part of the catalogue does. With your address in the US, the UK or Spain you buy as a local customer, and we combine everything into one air shipment.
We left out the big names that already deliver to the Gulf themselves, such as Zara, Next or ASOS: there you do not need us.
| Shop | From | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Kohl's | USA | Does not ship internationally; it ships to US addresses only. It may not accept non-US cards. |
| Walmart.com | USA | International shipping only to Canada and Mexico. |
| Argos | UK | Delivers only to UK addresses. |
| John Lewis | UK | “We don't offer international delivery.” |
| Decathlon.es | Spain | Delivers only in Spain and Andorra. |
| El Corte Inglés | Spain | Ships fashion abroad, but electronics, home, sport and baby products stay within the EU. |
| Vinted | Spain, France, Italy, Germany | Cross-border shipping only inside its own European markets — no route to the Gulf. |
| Wallapop | Spain, Italy | Operates only in Spain, Italy and Portugal, shipping only between them. |
Last updated: November 2026. Checked on the shops' own websites in November 2026. Delivery policies change — check before ordering. Some shops refuse non-local cards or forwarding addresses; we cannot guarantee a shop accepts your order.

Thousands of global shoppers trust Resendify
From fashion to car parts, from luxury to electronics — global shoppers use Resendify to buy from Europe without limits.
“Finally a service that actually works for buying from Spanish stores. I ordered from Zara España, MANGO and El Corte Inglés in the same week — everything arrived consolidated in one box. Shipping to LA was way cheaper than I expected.”
“I bought a MediaMarkt laptop that wasn't available in Canada at that price. The process was seamless — got my European address, placed the order, and Resendify handled everything from there. Will definitely use again.”
“Been sourcing European car parts for years. Resendify is the best forwarding service I've used for Europe-to-India shipments. The consolidation feature saved me hundreds on a single order.”
“Bought from a French boutique that doesn't ship to Australia. Got my Resendify address in minutes, placed the order, and it was on my doorstep in Sydney two weeks later. Exactly as advertised.”
“I source from 4–5 European suppliers every month. Resendify consolidates everything before it hits the US, which cuts my per-unit shipping cost significantly. The quote tool is accurate and the team is responsive.”
“Found a Zalando deal that was EU-only. Used Resendify, got the item shipped to Dubai without any issues. The customs documentation was all handled — that's the part I usually dread.”
Forwarding packages to Oman
Since 3 August 2026, postal consignments worth up to OMR 100 may qualify for customs relief, with conditions and excluded goods. The OMR 300 figure is the traveller allowance.
Import VAT is 5%. Whether it is still collected on parcels under OMR 100 is not clear from the published decision, so budget for it until customs confirms.
Because they now carry the region's bypass traffic and sit in war-risk areas. For parcels and a few pallets, air from our warehouses is simpler than a congested sea route.
Yes, though it changes week to week: airlines operate under conflict-zone advisories, some routes are suspended at short notice and risk surcharges apply. The quoter shows the services available today for your lane; we do not promise transit times.
