The Civil Aviation Authority intends to hold a press conference to announce Oman's results in the ICAO Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP). The conference will take place tomorrow, Wednesday, June 12, 2024, at the Authority's headquarters in Muscat. This result marks a historic achievement in the history of civil aviation in Oman.

The ICAO Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP) aims to assess the compliance of ICAO member states with the organization's aviation safety standards and recommendations. This is achieved through regular audits and the analysis of safety data to enhance the global level of aviation safety, which is implemented by the International Civil Aviation Organization.

It is worth noting that the importance of countries competing for a high score in the ICAO Coordinated Validation Missions (ICVM) lies in their strong commitment to the aviation safety standards and recommendations set by ICAO. This commitment enhances aviation safety, increases international trust, stimulates investment, and ensures compliance with international regulations, thereby reducing legal risks and international sanctions.
