In this paper, we study the oscillation of solutions for a fourth-order neutral nonlinear differential equation, driven by a $p$-Laplace differential operator of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \left( r\left( t\right) \Phi _{p_{1}}[w^{\prime \prime \prime }\left( t\right) ]\right) ^{\prime }+q\left( t\right) \Phi _{p_{2}}\left( u\left( \vartheta \left( t\right) \right) \right) =0, & \\ r\left( t\right) >0,\ r^{\prime }\left( t\right) \geq 0,\ t\geq t_{0}>0, & \end{cases} \end{equation*} The oscillation criteria for these equations have been obtained. Furthermore, some examples are given to illustrate the criteria.
