Hi,
I'm currently staying and studying in Oman on family visa, which will expire soon. I am 21 so can't renew the same visa. Therefore, I'm applying for a student visa which I will get. My question is, What is the cancellation process for this transfer. From family visa to Study Visa. Will I have to go back to Pakistan?

Hi Khalid Imtiaz,

As per the law of the land, no visa transfers are allowed. The expatriate must necessarily exit the country and return - after a certain wait period has been completed.

But I do see some posts on and off claiming that their visa have been transferred. When asked to clarify, I have not received any responses.

If in case, you do get to transfer your visa, without exiting the country, please do remember to make a mention of that here.
