Remote Work Compliance for Engineers

Remote engineers working from India for US companies are legally service exporters. You must register for GST if your turnover exceeds ₹20 Lakhs (or ₹10 Lakhs in hill states), even if all your bills are zero-rated. Keep an active LUT and collect FIRCs for every bank credit to remain fully compliant.
