how to track trade licence expiry for a company
What a trade licence is, and tracking it in two countries 1:07 min

A licence is the paper that says your company may legally trade. Four states. Only one of them is comfortable. One expired. That is a company that cannot currently trade. The badge counts up, not down. That's deliberate. Clear the filter — here is everything. Each licence belongs to a named authority. Cross the border and the authorities change with you. Oman calls the trade licence a Commercial Registration. Search by name or by number. The record holds the dates, the cost, and the document itself. So the actual paper is one click away, not in a drawer. Nine licences. Two countries. None of them forgotten.
Frequently asked questions
What is a trade licence, and what does an expired one mean?
It is the paper that says your company may legally trade. An expired licence means a company that cannot currently trade — which is why the badge counts up rather than down.
Is a licence called the same thing in every country?
No. Each licence belongs to a named authority, and the authorities change when you cross the border — Oman calls the trade licence a Commercial Registration.
Is the actual document stored with the record?
Yes — the record holds the dates, the cost and the document itself, so the paper is one click away instead of in a drawer.
