Tip for Hatta/Oman Visa Run (in car)
We were told to do a visa run at the last minute during the week and ended up going in the evening. When we got to the Oman office, they stamped us in/out at the same time, so we never had to leave the car park! I told them that the children were sleeping in the car, so their passports were stamped without being seen. We were not asked for and didn't have to pay insurance. Coming back into Dubai, the children again remained in the car (with their Dad) and their passports stamped, again without being seen. The biggest bonus was not having to pay the fine we thought was due (AED 2,100).
It seems that the evening is so much easier, there's no queues and the staff at both borders very friendly and helpful.
HTH ;)
