Cargo to Muscat, Oman
Muscat, the coastal capital of Oman, is about 206 km southeast of Sohar along the Batinah coast. A1's rate runs to Sohar, and the carrier notes that Muscat cargo moves via Sohar on a door-service basis only, so ask how final delivery to your address is arranged before you book. Toronto is the cheapest gateway at USD 6 per cubic foot with a smallest shipment of USD 476.92; transit is about 60 days from Toronto or Montreal and 75 days from Vancouver.
Canadians working in Oman and businesses supplying the capital are common shippers. Cargo must travel on pallets or skids of ISPM 15 heat-treated wood, and A1 does not pick up or palletize, so deliver it ready to the warehouse. A certificate of origin and a commercial invoice are required, and consular fees apply. Personal effects are possible on carrier approval with a signed packing list and a passport copy. Delivery beyond Sohar, Omani duties and taxes are not in A1's rate; the carrier confirms destination charges before the client pays.
How a shipment to Muscat works
Muscat is not a destination in the carrier's tariff. The closest priced destination is Sohar about 206 km (straight line) from Muscat: the A1 price covers ocean freight from Canada to the destination warehouse (CFS) at Sohar. From there the consignee collects the cargo or books the last leg to Muscat with a local trucking company; that delivery, destination customs clearance, duties and taxes are not in the A1 price.

Example from Toronto: 1 CBM / 200 kg USD 476.92 with all A1 fees. The carrier charges by volume or by weight (1,000 kg per CBM), whichever is greater. From the Prairies the quote adds trucking to Montreal or Vancouver.
