To send money abroad for family maintenance, the following are required:
• Remitter’s PAN card and valid photo ID (e.g., Aadhaar/passport)
• Relationship proof with the beneficiary (passport copy, birth certificate, etc.)
• Beneficiary’s passport and overseas bank account details
• Purpose declaration and Form A2 (we assist in filling this)
• Self-declaration of funds origin, if requested
You can send funds to support:
• Spouse
• Children (including those studying abroad)
• Parents or dependents
Relationship proof may be required in the form of a passport, birth/marriage certificate, or other valid documents.
Family maintenance remittances fall under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) and are available to resident individuals in India. Corporates are not eligible under this category.
Under LRS, an individual can remit up to USD 250,000 per financial year for all permissible purposes, including family maintenance.
We use:
• S1201 – Maintenance of close relatives abroad
This code ensures the remittance is properly categorized and reported to RBI.
Yes. You can remit to multiple relatives abroad, provided you stay within the overall LRS limit and provide valid documentation for each recipient.
Yes. As per current regulations, TCS may apply on outward remittances exceeding the prescribed thresholds. We will guide you based on your transaction value and remittance purpose.
Yes. You can remit for living expenses under family maintenance. If the remittance is for tuition or education fees, it falls under a different code (S0301 – Education), which we also support.
Once documentation is complete, most transactions are processed within 24–48 working hours, and a SWIFT/UTR reference is provided for tracking.
In most cases, scanned copies are sufficient. However, certain high-value or first-time transactions may require in-person verification or notarized documents, as per RBI guidelines.
