Oman will implement digital tax stamps (DTS) on imported beverages, including carbonated and energy drinks, from June 1 to improve compliance, transparency, and accountability in the excise sector.

The DTS scheme, initially applied to tobacco products, will now include imported beverages to ensure proper tax control and align with international best practices in tax administration.
-
From June 1, excisable beverages without digital stamps will not be allowed entry into Oman, and from August 1, unstamped products cannot be sold in the local market.
-
The Tax Authority is conducting workshops, inspections, and media campaigns from May 18-22 to educate stakeholders and facilitate a smooth transition to the new DTS requirements.
