Group of companies and registration
We have two Oman companies. Does each register?
The situation
Each taxable person tests the threshold and registers; group arrangements follow the law's rules.
The law
- VAT Law, Royal Decree 121/2020: 5 percent VAT; mandatory registration above OMR 38,500, voluntary above OMR 19,250; quarterly returns due 30 days after the quarter
What it means for you
Check whether each company crosses OMR 38,500 and whether VAT grouping is available for your structure. Splitting a business to stay under the threshold can be challenged.
What to do
- Test each company.
- Ask about group registration.
- Avoid artificial splits.
- Register as needed.
