OVERVIEW

What This Means for You

Large enterprises are in the first mandatory Fawtara phase, for VAT-registered businesses with annual supplies above OMR 5 million. For a group, that usually means several legal entities, more than one ERP, billing systems outside the ERP and thousands of invoices each month, all of which have to be ready on the same date.

We run Fawtara as a programme, not a single integration. It starts with an inventory of every system that issues invoices, a gap analysis against PINT OM and a plan that sets priorities by volume and risk. Each system is then connected to your accredited service provider, tested and brought live in a controlled order.

Under Ministerial Decision 189/2026, VAT-registered businesses with annual supplies above OMR 5 million go live on 1 April 2027 and all other VAT-registered businesses on 1 October 2027, after a pilot with around 100 selected companies that started in August 2026. Both B2B and B2C invoices are in scope, and e-invoices must be archived electronically for ten years. Because the first phase is close, enterprises need clear governance and decisions early.

Webtel works with your finance and IT teams from the first review of your invoices to the first weeks after go-live. We map your data to PINT OM, connect your system to an accredited service provider and test real scenarios, so your team keeps invoicing the way it does today while every invoice meets Fawtara requirements.

CAPABILITIES

What the Programme Covers

System inventory

Every system that issues invoices is identified and assessed.

Gap analysis

Data gaps against PINT OM are listed by entity and system.

Integration

ERPs and billing systems are connected through standard interfaces.

Governance

Clear owners, decisions and reporting for the steering committee.

COMMON CHALLENGES

What Usually Gets in the Way

These are the issues we see most often. Each one is planned for from the start, so it does not surface in the week before go-live.

01

Many systems

Invoices may come from ERPs, industry systems and older tools at the same time.

02

Tight timeline

All in-scope entities need to be ready for the April 2027 phase.

03

Competing projects

E-invoicing must fit around other IT and finance projects.

04

Ownership

Responsibility is often split between tax, finance and IT.

THE FAWTARA MODEL

How Oman E-Invoicing Works

Fawtara, the Oman Tax Authority's e-invoicing programme, uses a Peppol-based five-corner model. Invoices are issued in the PINT OM format and travel through an accredited service provider, which delivers them to the buyer and passes the tax data to the OTA. Invoices cannot be sent from an ERP directly to the OTA.

Step 1

You issue the invoice

In your ERP, accounting or billing system.

Step 2

It is validated

Checked against PINT OM and Omani VAT rules.

Step 3

Your provider sends it

Your accredited service provider exchanges it over Peppol.

Step 4

The buyer receives it

Delivered to the buyer's own service provider and system.

Step 5

The OTA is informed

Tax data reaches the Oman Tax Authority through Fawtara.

FAQS

Common Questions

Is there still time to be ready for April 2027?+

Yes, if the programme starts now and decisions are made quickly. We plan back from the go-live date and focus first on the highest-volume systems.

Can different entities use different systems?+

Yes. Each system is connected to the same e-invoicing setup, so the group follows one process even with several ERPs.

Do you work with our tax advisers?+

Yes. We work alongside your tax advisers on VAT treatments and focus on the data, systems and process.

When does Fawtara apply to my business?+

It depends on your annual supplies. Businesses above OMR 5 million go live on 1 April 2027 and all other VAT-registered businesses on 1 October 2027. We confirm your phase during the assessment.

Can we send e-invoices straight from our ERP to the OTA?+

No. Fawtara uses a five-corner model, so e-invoices are exchanged through an accredited service provider. Your system connects to the provider, which delivers the invoice and passes the tax data to the OTA.

Do we have to replace our accounting system?+

Usually not. Most ERP and accounting systems can be connected to an accredited service provider. We check your system and recommend the simplest route.
