Submit the required documents: Your client's firm will need to submit the required documents as per the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The documents may include proof of incorporation, business plan, PAN card, GST registration, and others as applicable.

Apply online: The application for FEMA authorization can be made online on the Reserve Bank of India's website. The application will need to be submitted along with the required documents and fees.
