Oman: 300 non-compliant businesses caught in e-payment inspection drive in Seeb
Muscat – As part of ongoing efforts to uphold market regulations and safeguard consumer rights, the Inspection Department at the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Investment Promotion carried out a large-scale inspection campaign in the Mabelah Industrial Area in the wilayat of Seeb. The campaign focused on ensuring compliance with mandatory electronic payment service requirements, in line with national directives to modernise commercial transactions and improve consumer convenience. Authorities confirmed the seizure of 300 commercial establishments found to be non-compliant, primarily for failing to provide electronic point-of-sale (POS) systems. Legal action has been initiated against the violators in accordance with applicable regulations. The Inspection Department reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening regulatory oversight and urged all businesses to comply with the e-payment mandate, which enhances transparency, reduces cash handling, and supports the sultanate's move toward a more digitally integrated economy. Regular inspection campaigns will continue across various governorates to ensure full adherence and protect consumer interests. © Apex Press and Publishing Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc. (

MUSCAT: The Indian School Al Seeb (ISAS) community is mourning the loss of one of its most beloved teachers, Ms. Lekha Jackson, who passed away on July 21, 2025, at the age of 53.

Despite her battle with the illness, she remained optimistic and in close contact with her school family, who continued to extend their love and prayers. "She was more than just a teacher —she was a mentor, a friend, and a source of inspiration to all who knew her," said one of the teachers at ISAS. "Her passion for teaching and art, and her gentle, compassionate spirit, will always be remembered." The Indian School board of directors and ISAS family extend their deepest condolences to her family and loved ones during this difficult time.
