About OIDAR GST Return Filing — Yearly Plan

Once registered under OIDAR, a foreign supplier must file Form GSTR-5A every month, reporting supplies made to unregistered persons in India and paying the IGST due, even in months with no sales. The return needs a reliable split of Indian customers from your global sales data and conversion of foreign-currency receipts into rupees. Upload your monthly sales report to the Fastlegal dashboard and our team prepares, reconciles and files the return and guides the tax payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is GSTR-5A due?↓

Under current rules GSTR-5A is due by the 20th of the month following the tax period. We ask for your data a few days earlier so the return can be reviewed and filed in time.

Do I have to file if I had no sales in India in a month?↓

Yes. A nil return must be filed for every month the registration is active. Our monthly plan covers nil returns as well.

How do I pay the tax from outside India?↓

Tax is paid into the electronic cash ledger on the GST portal. Foreign suppliers typically pay through the portal's international payment options or via their Indian representative's bank; we guide you through whichever route your bank supports.

Can I claim input tax credit on my Indian expenses?↓

No. Under current rules an OIDAR supplier registered through the simplified scheme cannot claim input tax credit; GSTR-5A only reports output supplies and tax payable.

Does this service require me to visit India?↓

No. Everything is handled through your dashboard and the GST portal. If you have appointed Fastlegal as your representative in India, we can also sign and submit on your behalf.

What if I stop supplying to India?↓

You can apply for cancellation of the OIDAR registration. A final return and settlement of any outstanding tax are required before cancellation, and we can handle that as a separate request.
