⚠️

UAE / GCC Alert

If you live in a zero-tax jurisdiction (UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Oman, etc.) and earn ₹15 lakh or more from Indian sources, you may be classified as a deemed Indian tax resident under the Income Tax Act, 2025 — even with zero days of physical presence in India. Your global income then becomes taxable in India. Consult our CA team before repatriating or restructuring.

Frequently asked

Do you handle the customs paperwork end-to-end?

Yes. Empaneled clearing agents at JNPT and Chennai handle TR Form preparation, duty assessment, and clearance. We coordinate handover from your overseas mover.

What is RNOR and why does it matter?

Resident-but-Not-Ordinarily-Resident — a transitional tax status when you return to India. Lasts 2-3 years. Your foreign income is exempt from Indian tax during the RNOR window. Whether it is taxed abroad depends on the applicable Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA). For example, UAE/GCC-based NRIs in zero-tax jurisdictions may pay no tax on that income anywhere during this period. From 1 April 2026 (Income Tax Act, 2025), high-income NRIs earning ₹15 lakh or more from Indian sources are classified as RNOR if they stay 120 days or more in India (and 365+ days in the preceding 4 years) — increased from the previous 60-day threshold.

Can you move my pet from the US/UK/UAE?

Yes. We coordinate with IATA-certified pet carriers. End-to-end paperwork: rabies titer, vaccinations, customs declaration, airline booking, ground handling at Mumbai/Delhi/Bangalore.

How does Concierge differ from booking individual services?

Concierge gives you one dedicated advisor coordinating all 12 services across 6 months — vs. you managing each booking, each timeline, each handover yourself. Saves ~40 hours of project management.
