Tax in India

[riyasalive]

I live in India and as per my fiverr profile, my country of residency is India. I have a residence visa in the UAE but I cannot change this country location since I dont have any documents asked by fiverr to change my country of residency (utility bill, phone bill, rent agreement) But my fiverr earnings are withdrawn to my bank account I have in the UAE. Do I have to pay income tax in India if my earnings are withdrawn to my UAE bank account? Fiverr already takes TDS from earnings, but I want to know if I have to pay income tax in India.

Hi @riyasalive - Tax laws and requirements vary from country to country, so you'll have to consult with a professional tax professional who is knowledgeable in tax laws in India and the UAE.

For me, I have US citizenship and Japan residency. For Japan, I don't have to pay taxes on foreign-earned income. For the US, I do have to pay taxes on foreign-earned income. I end up filing taxes in both countries to cover all my bases.
