Frequently asked questions
Do I pay GST on foreign client income?
Zero-rated — but only if you export under a Letter of Undertaking (Form GST RFD-11). Without the LUT, that 18% applies to dollars you never taxed yourself on.
My turnover is ₹25L but it's all exports.
The 2024 CBIC notification exempts pure zero-rated service exporters from registration even past the threshold. The checker walks through the conditions.
