TRC for a future year
Can I get a TRC now for next financial year?
The situation
No. A TRC can only cover the current or a past tax period, or another past 12-month period.
The law
- FTA guide TPGTR1: No TRC for future periods
What it means for you
Example: for Indian FY 2026-27, which runs to 31 March 2027, apply after the period, or ask for a past 12-month period that fits what the Indian side needs. The India-side requirements are for the India team.
What to do
- Pick a past or current period.
- Match it to the foreign requirement.
- Apply when the period has passed.
- Keep copies for each year.
