INWARD REMITTANCE: WHAT IS IT?
Let’s use an example to demonstrate. Alok is an engineer who works overseas. He sends his aging parents a sizable portion of his monthly paycheck back home. Now, he is making an outward remittance anytime he deposits money into their bank account, which is most likely a savings account. It is an inbound remittance for the receiving parents.
INWARD REMITTANCE RBI GUIDELINES
A few rules have been established by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to control inward remittances:
- Only the following can be done with an inward remittance: education, medical care, travel expenditures, investments, donations, living expenses, financial support, or as a present.
- A foreign Inward remittance certificate (FIRC), issued by the recipient’s bank, is required for each inbound transfer. The objective of the transfer, the exchange rate used for the transaction, and the sender and recipient’s names and bank account numbers, among other information, are all included in this document.
- Rupee Drawing Arrangement (RDA) or Money Transfer Service Scheme are the two ways in which individuals in India can receive an inward remittance (MTSS).
- The quantity of inward remittances for personal use is not capped under the RDA.
- Each inward remittance is limited to $2500 under MTSS.
- A beneficiary of the MTSS is only eligible to receive a maximum of 30 inbound transfers per calendar year.
The rules are revised on a regular basis. To learn about the most recent inward remittance regulations, it is recommended to check the official RBI website or speak with your bank.
ADVANTAGES OF INWARD REMITTANCE
Let’s look at how international remittances to India are benefiting both households and the country’s economy.
- Advantages For Both People And Families

PROCESS OF INWARD REMITTANCE
Receiving money online through a remittance is a fairly simple process. All you have to do is give the sender a few details. Your full name, address, local bank account number, bank name, address, SWIFT code, and the reason for the transfer are among the information provided. It’s best to ask the bank what more they need as they might need further information. Ask the sender to start the remittance from their bank account once you have these details.
When your inbound remittance arrives, you will be notified by email or text.
BANK FEES FOR INWARD REMITTANCE
Different fees apply to inward transfers. The price is determined by a number of variables, including the current exchange rate, correspondent bank fees, type of transfer, account type, and country of origin. The projected costs will be disclosed to the customer by the bank itself, nevertheless, before the transaction is finalised.
