Why Your 401k Matters When Moving Back to India 🇮🇳 | NRI Tax & RNOR Planning Explained

Описание: “Moving back to India with a 401k? ✈️
Here’s why your US retirement account is more than just savings — it’s a tax strategy.

✅ Double Tax Risk – 401k withdrawals are taxed in the US and may also be taxed in India. Relief is possible under the US–India DTAA, but only if you file correctly.
✅ Disclosure Rules – Your 401k must be reported in India under Schedule FA. Missing it can mean penalties of up to ₹10 lakh per year 🚨.
✅ RNOR Golden Window – For 2–3 years after returning, your RNOR status may keep foreign income (like 401k withdrawals or Roth earnings) outside Indian tax. This is the best time for advance planning.

⚠️ Don’t let your 401k turn into a tax trap.
