Hi Safna nujoob,
The employee's approved GAMCA medical tests are mandatory before the employment visa can be processed. So how do you intend to do your medicals after arriving, if you cancel your visit visa and leave ?
The GAMCA medical tests can be done at any approved medical centre, anywhere. There is no mandatory requirement that the test has to be only done in the expatriate's home country.

Sorry..I was mistaken..i meant that,can i take medical checkup with the 'offer letter' they provided from any gamca centre here,before i leave oman?

Hi Safna nujoob,
Do the medicals a day before you leave the Sultanate. So that the medical test results can remain valid up to March 2019. Unfortunately, no other options are available.
