GST Applicability on Foreign Services

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A UK-based software developer earning approximately £24 lakh annually from a Qatar-based company through freelancing is seeking clarity on GST applicability. Services provided to overseas clients are generally considered exports and are zero-rated under GST. However, if the total annual turnover exceeds ₹20 lakh, GST registration becomes mandatory.

31 December 2024 Services to the Qatar company are considered an export of services.
These services are zero-rated under GST, meaning no GST needs to be paid on this income.
If their total turnover exceeds ₹20 lakh, GST registration is mandatory.
