The PTE test centre in Oman
Pearson's test centers and fees finder lists a single Omani centre, read on 13 October 2026. The address is left out on purpose; the finder and your booking confirmation give the current one.
| City | Centre |
|---|---|
| Muscat | Gulf College |
If you live outside Muscat
Pearson lists no PTE centre in Salalah, Sohar, Nizwa, Sur or Buraimi. IELTS reaches all of these cities through the British Council or IDP (see IELTS test centres in Oman). PTE Academic Online can be taken at home for USD 260, but Pearson says governments do not currently accept it for visas.
Pearson's finder does not show which centre runs which test on which day. When you book, choose the exact test first (PTE Academic, Academic UKVI, Core or Home) and then your city; only centres with slots for that test appear. Slots can be booked at least 24 hours ahead (Pearson's booking guide).
