Hi,

I run my Language Translation Agency and provide translation services in Indian languages. We translate document (text) from one language to another language. And My Translators are also based in India. I started my Translation Agency in 2009-10. To open an account in bank, Bank asked for a registration number. This is why I took service tax number. Since then I am providing Translation services to Indian clients. However My turnover is not exceeded than 4-5 lacs. However as I have service tax number so I am paying service tax regularly. Now from this Financial year 2013-14, I have also started provide services for some foreign languages also and for foreign clients also. For this I have to take services to Translators outside of India. for example If I have to provide Chinese Translation services to my USA based client, I take the help of china based translator. Client send me document through email and I also forward the document to my translator. When he/she translates it, send me back to and I forward it to my client. Now client pays me through paypal in (USD). I do not charge any Service tax to my client. I also have to pay to my Translator through paypal in USD. When client pays me through his/her paypal account to my paypal account. Paypal deducts 4-6% amount. Suppose Client sends me 100 USD to my paypal account. When I take this amount to my Paypal amount the amount remain 96 USD. Moreover when I withdraw this amount to my bank account in Indian currency. I get Rs. 2/- less on each USD. Suppose USD Rate is Rs. 62/- so I get Rs. 60 for each USD. Then I have to pay to my Translator, for this I use bank transfer or paypal. Mostly out of India translators prefer payment through Paypal, Moneybooker, or Western Union. To Pay translators through paypal I have to use My Credit card and I also have to pay Rs. 2/- more on each USD, to my Translator. If I have to pay 10 USD to my translator, so I have to pay Rs. 640/- if Rate of one USD is Rs. 62/- .
Now, I have not returned my Apr - Sept 2014 Service tax yet. I just want to know Should I pay the service tax on foreign business also. Especially in that case when a lot of amount is already deduct from the net amount.
