FCRA registration

An NGO needs registration — or prior permission for a specific donor and purpose — under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act before it can receive any foreign contribution, which must first land in its FCRA account at SBI, New Delhi Main Branch.

Issued by: Ministry of Home Affairs
Law: Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act 2010 and the FCRA Rules 2011
Where to apply: fcraonline.nic.in

How FCRA registration works

The usual picture. Procedures, fees and forms differ by state and authority — always check the current rules before you apply.

Who needs it

Trusts, societies and Section 8 companies receiving foreign donations
Organisations with a definite cultural, economic, educational, religious or social programme

Documents usually asked for

Registration certificate and governing document of the NGO
Audited accounts and activity reports (registration usually needs three years of existence and minimum spending on core work)
Details of key functionaries, with their Aadhaar
For prior permission: a commitment letter from the foreign donor

The process

Open the FCRA account at SBI, New Delhi Main Branch
Apply to MHA online — registration, or prior permission if you are newer
Verification by MHA and security agencies
Certificate granted; file annual returns and renew every five years
