Prepare your organisation for Oman's e-invoicing journey
Thomson Reuters and Grant Thornton are jointly hosting a practical webinar focused on Oman e-invoicing readiness, regulatory expectations, impact assessment and implementation planning.
As e-invoicing moves forward in Oman, businesses need to understand not only the regulatory requirements, but also the operational changes required across tax, finance, IT, systems, data and processes. Many organisations are now evaluating how the mandate will affect their current invoicing practices, ERP environments, manual processes, data quality and compliance workflows. This webinar will bring together regulatory, advisory and technology perspectives to help organisations understand what is changing, why e-invoicing is being introduced, and how to prepare effectively.
The session will explain the rationale behind the mandate, the importance of conducting an impact and gap assessment, and how technology can support compliance without necessarily requiring a major ERP transformation.
The webinar will also include a structured Q&A segment, with selected questions addressed during the session. Additional questions submitted by attendees will be reviewed and responded to after the webinar, with key responses consolidated into a post-event FAQ.
