Oman has announced that from November 1, 2025, the sale of energy drinks and specific soft drinks without an official "Digital Tax Stamp" (DTS) will be prohibited. This measure is designed to guarantee that these products meet national safety and quality standards, while also protecting consumers from unauthorized or counterfeit goods. The government has directed all importers, manufacturers, and traders to ensure their products are properly labeled.
The new regulation mandates that these excisable beverages must have the digital stamp affixed to them to be legally sold and distributed within the country. However, the rule provides an exemption for commonly consumed sweetened drinks, narrowing its focus primarily to the energy drink sector. Authorities have made it clear that no further extensions will be granted beyond the November 1st deadline.
This initiative strengthens tax compliance and helps prevent tax evasion on designated products. By implementing this tracking system, Oman aims to bring greater oversight to the market. All stakeholders have been urged to adhere to the new rules to keep their products available for sale after the deadline.
