10 November 2021 Hi,

1. Does a company who wants to design websites for clients outside India and receive payments in Dollars via wire transfer requires to register for IEC number (Import Export Code.?)

2. When we purchase services like Web Hosting Servers from vendors outside India, we pay GST via RCM method and claim input credit. But there is no way to deduct TDS for foreign vendors as they don't have any tax registration in India. So how do we handle this?
