Understanding FFMC Money Changer License and How FinFit Advisors Can Assist You

The Full-Fledged Money Changer (FFMC) license is crucial for businesses involved in foreign exchange services in India. Acquiring this license ensures compliance with regulatory norms and boosts the credibility of your business.

The FFMC license is issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to entities that wish to conduct money-changing activities, such as buying and selling foreign exchange. This license is mandatory for ensuring that foreign exchange operations are legal and secure.

• Eligibility Criteria: The applicant must be a company incorporated under the Companies Act, 2013, with a minimum net owned fund of INR 25 lakh for single-branch operations or INR 50 lakh for multi-branch operations.

• Documentation: Submission of detailed business plans, board resolutions, financial statements, and compliance declarations. Additional documents may include:

  • Certificate of incorporation and Memorandum & Articles of Association.

  • PAN Card and GST Registration Certificate.

  • Ownership proof or lease agreement of the business premises.

• Premises Verification: Ensuring the business location meets security and operational standards prescribed by RBI, including:

  • Secure storage facilities for foreign exchange.

  • Adequate infrastructure to handle currency exchanges.

• RBI Approval: The RBI thoroughly reviews the application before granting the license. Regular audits and inspections are conducted post-approval to ensure ongoing compliance.

The process involves meticulous documentation, adherence to RBI guidelines, and regular compliance checks. Key challenges include:

• Understanding state-specific regulations and their impact on the application process.
