About Al Qabas Chartered Accountants

Established in 1995 and based in Bousher, Muscat, this chartered accountancy firm says it has completed more than 1,400 audits for over 500 clients in Oman and the Gulf. It operates under a ministry licence and presents audit, accounting, VAT, tax and financial consultancy as its core lines. A separate corporate services unit registers limited liability and closed joint-stock companies, handles name reservation, memorandum drafting and chamber enrolment, and keeps statutory registers and renewals up to date afterwards. Foreign groups can use it to register a branch or representative office in Oman, including the ministry and tax registrations. The accounting side covers bookkeeping, IFRS statements, payroll with wage-protection compliance and reconciliations, while the tax team prepares returns, handles withholding tax and deals with the Oman Tax Authority. The site is in English and lists no fees.
