Eligibility
Who can open a Branch Office in India?+
Any foreign company profitable for 5 years with net worth ≥ USD 100,000. Activities must align with parent’s business. Most sectors qualify under Automatic Route. Companies from countries sharing land borders with India require the applicable Government Route / approval process.
What if we don’t meet the net worth criteria?+
You may still qualify through a Letter of Comfort (LoC) from your parent’s company if the parent meets eligibility norms. Our professional team will assess your situation in a free consultation.
Can a Branch Office engage in retail trading?+
No. Retail trading is explicitly prohibited under FEMA. If retail is your goal, a Subsidiary (Pvt Ltd) is the appropriate structure.
Process & Timeline
How long does the setup take?+
8–12 weeks end-to-end. RBI approval 4–8 weeks (biggest variable). Document preparation 1–2 weeks. ROC, GST, bank setup 2–4 weeks after RBI approval.
Do I need to visit India?+
No. 100% remote. Documents collected digitally, DSCs issued online, all filings electronic. Clients from the US, UK, UAE, Germany, Australia — none visited India.
What documents are needed for RBI approval?+
Certificate of Incorporation, M&A, audited financials (3–5 years), Board Resolution, KYC of authorised representatives. Foreign documents must be notarised and apostilled. We provide a country-specific checklist on Day 1.
지속적인 준법 감시
What annual compliance filings are required?+
Annual Activity Certificate (RBI), Income Tax Return, ROC FC-3, FEMA FLA Return, monthly/quarterly GST returns, TDS filings. RBI approval must be renewed every 3 years.
Can profits be repatriated to the parent company?+
Yes — freely repatriable after Indian taxes and CA certificate confirming compliance. India’s DTAA with 90+ countries protects against double taxation.
Branch Office vs Other Structures
Branch Office vs Liaison Office vs Subsidiary?+
Branch Office: earns income, repatriates profits — commercial presence. Liaison Office: represents parent only, no income allowed. Subsidiary: new Indian company, more flexibility. Choose based on your India business model.
Why choose a Branch Office over a Subsidiary?+
Branch Office is ideal when you want to maintain parent identity, avoid a new Indian entity, retain full control, and enable easy profit repatriation. Common for financial services, audit, consulting, IT exporters.
