Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the necessity of obtaining a TAN number and filing Forms 15CA/CB for foreign currency payments made by a proprietorship. It addresses whether TDS needs to be deducted for payments to foreign freelancers, considering Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA) like the one with Thailand. The consensus is that a TAN is generally required if the payment is subject to TDS, though forms can sometimes be filed without it.
Thanks a lot for your reply. Actually the payment is to be made to a freelancer translator in Thailand. he does not have any permanent establishment in India. Can you please suggest on the tds deduction. i mean do we need to deduct tds or not.
