You are required to be registered under GST.

In GST, export of services is treated as inter state supply and any person doing inter state supply is required to be registered.

Hi,

Under GST, export is treated as inter state supply and every person doing interstate is required to take GST registration.

Hence you have to take GST registration.

Export is zero rated. You have two option, you can either export under bond (without paying GST) or you can export with GST and then claim refund of GST

Please feel free to call/ revert in case you need more clarity.

Thanks and regards

Hii

export of services or goods are zero rated supply under GST Regime

In GST you have to register and either file Bond/LUT and no need to pay GST or pay GST at the time of export and claim refund while filling return

1. If your vendors are registered under GST, they will charge GST. If they are unregistered, then you will have to pay GST under reverse charge. In both the cases, you can claim input tax credit of the same.

2. You will have to file 3 returns monthly and one annual return.

3. To give you quote, we would like to understand your number of transaction and accuracy of accounting.

Hello,

1. You need to file 12 monthly returns and 1 annual return.

2. 12 monthly returns throughout the year.

3. It will be always preferable to hire someone from your own city rather than hire someone elsewhere as It will be very difficult for the professional to attend your office at the time of department visit/ audit/ verification etc.

Trust this clarifies your query.

Feel free to call / get back in case of further clarifications.

Thanking You.

Hi,

Your query is debatable and clarity is still required from the government.

Regarding the letter of undertaking and return filing, it is advisable for you to appoint someone local, since it involves continuous follow up with the department.
