If you've earned income outside India and paid tax on it in the foreign country, you may be eligible to claim Foreign Tax Credit (FTC) in India. This helps you avoid double taxation on the same income.
To claim this credit, the Income Tax Department requires you to file Form 67 before filing your Income Tax Return (ITR). This form is used to declare the details of income earned, taxes paid overseas, and the credit you wish to claim against your Indian tax liability.
Filing Form 67 is mandatory for availing the benefit of FTC, and failure to do so may result in denial of the credit by the tax authorities.
We've made it easy for you to understand and file Form 67 by creating a step-by-step guide on our Tax Q&A thread:
