In response to inquiries received from entities, institutions and individuals working in the accounting, finance, and auditing sector, the Ministry of Labour clarifies the following:
Starting from 1 September 2025, all workers in the sector, Omanis and expatriates, are required to obtain a professional classification certificate as a prerequisite for issuing or renewing work permits.
This certificate is issued by the sectoral skills unit licensed by the ministry, in cooperation with the Oman Association of Chartered Public Accountants, the regulator of the labour market in this sector.
The procedure includes all workers in the professions specified in the classification list approved by the sector.
Registration in the electronic system starts from 1 August, and the registration link will be provided later through the official channels of the ministry.
For inquiries, please contact the call centre 80077000.
We stress the importance of adhering to this procedure to ensure the regulation of the labour market and improve the efficiency of workers in this vital sector.
