For Indian citizens

What is different for Indian citizens.

  • Resident Indians may remit up to USD 250,000 per financial year under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme, and buying immovable property abroad is a permitted use.

    Reserve Bank of India, LRS FAQ

  • From 1 April 2025, LRS remittances for purposes such as overseas property attract 20% tax collected at source on amounts above INR 10 lakh a year.

    Standard Chartered India, LRS amendment in TCS

  • India does not permit dual citizenship for adults, so acquiring a second citizenship voluntarily ends Indian citizenship.
