Update: RTA 201 Dubai to Oman Bus is Cancelled

The Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) Dubai and Mwasalat, Oman National Transport Company together started 201 bus service in January 2019. The 201 bus was operating from Dubai to Oman (Muscat) and Oman to Dubai on daily basis.

After four years, in February 2023, the Government of Oman suspended 201 bus service. Furthermore, the RTA Dubai and Mwasalat, Oman have not announced any update on a new bus service between Dubai and Oman.

Talking about other Emirates, the Mwasalat, Oman still operates 202 bus from Abu Dhabi to Oman (Muscat) and from Oman to Abu Dhabi as well as 203 bus from Sharjah to Oman (Muscat) and from Oman to Sharjah on a regular basis.

Unfortunately, the 201 bus is suspended and currently, there is no public transport bus service available between Dubai and Oman. So, all travelers have to rely on the private bus service companies such as Al Khanjry Transport and others.
