NRI KYC is not just resident KYC with a passport attached. It sits under a different regulatory stack (FEMA plus RBI plus PMLA plus, for investments, SEBI), uses a different documentation standard, and gets rejected for a distinct set of reasons that resident KYC almost never sees. Most of those rejections come down to one […]
