Recieving Payments


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
If you're managing a foreign company's Discord server and need to invoice them for payment, you don't necessarily need to start your own company. You can create an invoice in your own name, specifying the service and amount. It's generally advisable to receive payments in Indian Rupees directly into your bank account rather than using cryptocurrency to simplify tax and legal matters. If your monthly earnings exceed a certain threshold, you may need to register for GST.

24 March 2022 I am working for a foreign company. I manage their discord server and in exchange they promised to pay me but the only issue is they need an invoice. So my question is do I need to start a company to generate invoices and recieve payments or I can get paid in crypto or is there any other way? Also what will be my tax liability

24 March 2022 No need to start a company. As a consultant/ technical professional raise invoice in your name in foreign currency .
Receive payment in your Indian bank account.
Are you working in India or outside India.

24 March 2022 Yes you can create an invoice in your name, no need of incorporating any company.
Further, it is better to receive the money in Indian currency then crypto to save taxes and other legalities.
