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 Respected Sir,
My Freind is Software Devloper he Provide Services to Qatar Based Company on Hourly Basis,
( Freelancing - work from home)
Monthly income around is Rs. 2 lakhs So its Yearly 24 Lakh Rs.
. Where GST applicable For Service Providers more than 20 lakhs Rs.

My question is
Wether GST registration is Mandatory or not ?

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.
