Running a business in Oman is exciting — but when it comes to taxation and compliance, even a small mistake can lead to huge penalties or reputation damage.
Whether you’re a startup in Muscat or a growing enterprise in Salalah, here are the top tax mistakes companies make — and how you can avoid them with the help of Certified Point, Oman’s trusted tax consultant and auditing firm.
1. Ignoring VAT Filing Deadlines
The Value Added Tax (VAT) in Oman isn’t something you can ignore. Missing deadlines can lead to heavy fines from the Tax Authority.
Solution:
Certified Point ensures you never miss a VAT deadline, with real-time filing reminders, document tracking, and professional submission.
2. Incorrect Bookkeeping = Financial Chaos
Unorganized or outdated bookkeeping is the #1 reason businesses lose track of expenses, miss deductions, and file wrong returns.
Solution:
Let Certified Point handle your bookkeeping in Oman — from transaction recording to payroll, we keep your books clean and audit-ready.
3. No Professional Audit = Risky Future
Skipping regular audits makes your business vulnerable to surprises during government inspections or funding rounds.
Solution:
Our certified auditors in Muscat conduct thorough, unbiased reviews of your finances — giving you peace of mind and investor confidence.
4. Not Knowing What You Can Legally Deduct
Many small businesses overpay tax simply because they don’t know what expenses are deductible under Oman’s tax laws.
Solution:
With Certified Point, our experienced tax advisors guide you through every deduction you’re legally eligible for — reducing your tax bill and maximizing savings.
5. Doing It All Yourself
Managing taxes, audits, and financial planning without expert help is like walking blindfolded on a tightrope.
