1 yes, you have to pay TDS in Japan under fees for technical service under Article 12. 2 yes, relief can be claimed for the TDS in the tax payable in India ( tax payable in India can be reduced to the extent of TDS in Japan) 3 No advantage or disadvantage. You have to comply with tax rules.

Thank you so much for your Quick reply. 1. Even though we are not giving any technical service to them, is it mandatory to pay TDS in Japan or can we request the Japanese company to pay us fully and pay the taxes in India under Article 7.
2.We are also helping other clients in similar manner, they have not Deducted any TDS from us.
3. If we have to pay the TDS of 10% in Japan doesn't it disrupt the cash flow for the exporter to export the product to parent company?
4.What is the best way to not pay the TDS in Japan and pay the taxes India in that way we wont be having cash flow problem.
5. How long it takes for us claim the TDS in India, what are the documents that we take it from Japanese company?

1 Quality control is a technical service. It's mandatory to pay TDS in Japan. You can't make any such request. 2 Such TDS may not be there in other countries. 3 No cash flow disruption. You reduce advance tax payment to the extent of TDS. 4 Best way' suggested above. 5 Reduce the amount in advance tax. Obtain TDS certificate claim it in ITR.

Thank you so much. it's a great help to making me to understand the rules.
1 As apart of this we might also be exporting the product to Japan and European countries, but we will be paid from Japan. Ex: If we rise invoice for 10lakh for exporting the product will they collecting TDS on it. 2. will the TDS to be collected only against the technical service invoices.
1. Will the TDS be applicable on research and procure materials in India. 2. Will the TDS be applicable for business development and managing the other companies if we are receiving the payments from Japan
