Hello

Quick Summary

Freelancers receiving foreign income need an FIRC certificate for GST purposes. While SBI branches may be unaware of the process, FIRC issuance was discontinued by banks in 2016 and is now primarily handled online. You may need to write to your bank with transaction details. Some users suggest looking into online platforms like Payoneer India for digital FIRC certificates.
