Form 145 (Earlier Form 15CA) - Foreign Remittance Compliance under Income-tax Act 2025

From 1 April 2026, the Income-tax Act, 2025 introduces Form 145, which replaces the earlier Form 15CA used for reporting foreign remittances from India. Whenever a person in India sends money to a non-resident individual or foreign company, certain reporting requirements must be fulfilled to ensure compliance with tax laws. Form 145 allows the Income Tax Department to track foreign remittances and determine whether tax deduction at source (TDS) is applicable on the payment. In certain cases, a Chartered Accountant certificate in Form 146 (earlier Form 15CB) must be obtained before filing Form 145. This guide explains when Form 145 and Form 146 are required, who needs to file them, and how the process works under the Income-tax Act 2025.

What is Form 145 in Income Tax?

Form 145 is a declaration form that must be filed before making a foreign remittance to a non-resident or foreign company.

It captures details such as:
  • Name and details of the remitter
  • Name and country of the recipient
  • Nature and purpose of the remittance
  • Amount being remitted
  • Applicable tax rate
  • Tax deducted at source (TDS), if any

Form 145 must be filed before the remittance is processed by the bank.

Is Form 145 the replacement for Form 15CA?

Yes. Under the Income-tax Act, 2025, Form 145 replaces the earlier Form 15CA which was used under the Income-tax Act, 1961 for reporting foreign remittances.

Form 15CAForm 145
Form 15CBForm 146

The objective of the new forms remains the same: reporting payments made to non-residents and ensuring proper tax compliance.

What is Form 146 (Earlier Form 15CB)?

Form 146 is a certificate issued by a Chartered Accountant confirming the taxability of a foreign remittance.

The CA certifies:
  • Nature of the remittance
  • Applicable tax provisions
  • Availability of DTAA benefits
  • Correct TDS rate
  • Amount of tax required to be deducted

Form 146 must be obtained before filing Form 145 Part C.
