When you need it

You live abroad and receive money from India, such as interest, rent or dividends, and the bank or the person paying you asks for your tax residency certificate and the Form 10F details so that tax is dealt with under the tax agreement between India and your country. This letter sends those papers with a short explanation, addressed to the payer or the bank.

This letter only carries your papers. It does not claim any rate. Not for applying to the tax office for a lower tax deduction certificate — use the NRI Lower TDS Certificate Application for that. Usable anywhere in India; it is not specific to Punjab or Chandigarh.

What follows is the position for this kind of document. The amount is set by the state the property is in and it changes, so the figure for your own state is worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office before you pay anything.

Stamp duty

Not a stamp-dutiable instrument — a covering letter.

Registration

Not registrable.

Notarisation

Not required for the letter. The tax residency certificate itself comes from the tax authority of your country of residence, and the payer may ask for a certified or attested copy of it — confirm with the payer.

Witnesses

Not required.

TAX RESIDENCY CERTIFICATE AND FORM 10F: COVERING LETTER

Dear Sir/Madam,

Sub: Tax residency documents for interest on my fixed deposit (NRO Account No. XXXXXXXX4567)

1. I am a resident of Canada for tax purposes, and I receive interest on my fixed deposit from you in India under NRO Account No. XXXXXXXX4567.

2. I enclose a tax residency certificate (TRC) issued by Canada Revenue Agency, reference TRC-2026-004512, covering 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027.

3. I also enclose Form 10F. For your convenience, the details I have given in it are: status, individual; nationality, Indian; tax identification number in Canada, 123 456 789; period for which I am a resident there, 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027; and address in Canada, 45 Maple Drive, Brampton, Ontario L6T 1A1. The form itself is the record; if anything here differs from the form, the form is what I am relying on.

4. I request that tax on payments to me be dealt with as the Income-tax Act and the agreement between India and Canada for avoiding double taxation provide for a person in my position, as the current rules require. I am not asking you to apply any particular rate; please apply the one that is correct on the documents enclosed.

5. I also enclose: Copy of the tax residency certificate, Form 10F, copy of passport, copy of PAN. When this certificate expires I will send a fresh one. If you need anything more, such as a certified copy, please write to me at harjinder@example.com.

Yours faithfully,
