Form 15CA / 15CB

Before money is sent abroad, the remitter files an online declaration (Form 15CA) and, for taxable remittances above the limit, gets a chartered accountant's certificate (Form 15CB) on the tax withheld. Banks will not release the remittance without them.

Issued by: Income Tax Department
Law: The Income-tax Act and Rules — withholding on payments to non-residents
Where to apply: incometax.gov.in
