Did you create the QBO account from your QBOA account? Or did you signup for that QBO account from website?

I didnt know about Quickbooks Accountant website until today so yeah. Just normal quickbooks. It somehow signed up for Ireland version even though I'm on a different continent and apparently I just cant switch the countries like that without losing all my data. Worst experience in minor issues of software

Where is your company located? Ireland or another country?

It's possible that you were in Ireland when you signed up for that account or that you only have an Irish phone number. You should signup for a new QBO Global account for Oman and migrate your data from QBO Ireland with a migration tool, Otherwise, you can buy a 3rd party service to do so,

I have never left the middle east and nor was any of my technology even been in close proximity to Europe. The website just signs into a randomly country whenever you visit it. So far even with using Ireland version there havent been any issues. I'm planning to stick till the subscription time is over and switch to a software with 3 decimal places. Its very important for us. I am not willing to pay extra for anything else.

It shouldn't work like that unless you were using a VPN and set your IP as Ireland.

 

If you don't mind to keep using QBO Ireland version for the time being, you will need to create a QBO Accountant Ireland account to access your QBO Ireland account as an accountant.
