Is the word omitido the same in Brazilian and European Portuguese?

Yes

The word "omitido" is identical in meaning, spelling, and grammar in both Brazilian and Continental Portuguese. The only difference is in pronunciation. In Brazilian Portuguese, vowels are generally more open and clearly articulated. In Continental Portuguese, unstressed vowels undergo significant reduction; for example, the initial "o" is often pronounced more like a "u," and the unstressed "i" is shortened or "swallowed," resulting in a more consonant-heavy sound.
