Moving to Muscat - driving licence

Hi,

I am originally from India and had been in Bahrain since 2 years. I have
* a valid Indian license for more than 10 years valid until 2019
* a valid Bahraini Licence since more than 1 year, valid until 2018 I believe

I am now moving to Muscat in December and want to know
* Do I need to take another test on grounds that my Bahraini License if less than 2 years old
* If there are tests to be cleared, what are the tests I would have to take - is it inside and outside the driving school or both?

I am not exporting my car from Bahrain as I intend to buy a new one in Muscat. Anything else need for an answer, please let me know.

Kindly be kind to revert to my email address directly : [email protected]

Thanks
