About FCRA Registration

FCRA registration is mandatory for NGOs receiving foreign donations. Regulated by the Ministry of Home Affairs, FCRA allows NGOs to receive foreign funds legally and compliantly. It provides legal foreign funding access, global donor credibility, and enables long‑term international support. Only NGOs with a minimum operating history of 3 years are eligible to apply for FCRA registration.

Process: We begin with a thorough eligibility and track‑record review of your NGO. Our team prepares all required documentation, including activity reports, financial statements, and bank details. We then file the online application with the Ministry of Home Affairs, manage follow‑ups and clarifications, and track the application until approval. The entire process takes approximately 3‑6 months. Our goal is to make your NGO legally eligible to receive foreign contributions smoothly.
