RBI Guidelines on NRO and NRE Accounts for Non-Resident Indians
Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) must close or convert resident savings accounts to Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO) accounts or open Non-Resident External (NRE) accounts as per Reserve Bank of India guidelines. NRO accounts manage income earned in India, such as rent or dividends, with limited repatriation and applicable taxes. NRE accounts hold foreign income in Indian rupees, offering tax-exempt interest and full repatriation. Both account types serve distinct purposes for NRIs managing funds in India under regulatory compliance.
