How Fawtara Works

You create an invoice much as you do today. The difference is what happens electronically after you press Issue or Submit.

Seller→Seller's service provider→Buyer's service provider→Buyer

The Oman model also includes the Tax Authority as the fifth corner for the required tax reporting.

What the business owner sees

A good system should simply show statuses such as Draft, Validated, Submitted, Accepted, Rejected and Delivered. The software should translate technical validation errors into understandable messages.
