Dear All,

Greetings!

Ours is a sofware pvt. ltd. company, established in year 2011 and we would like to have business relationship with one of our clients located in South Africa (Johannesburg). Our client's company is registered company in SA and is fully owned by SA Citizen (of Indian Origin). I would like to know the procedure for the following:

- What is the legal documentation required between us and SA company?

- Basically we will provide software services to SA client and in turn SA client will pay money to us. We would like to know what could be the best mode of money remittance?

- If service tax is applicable for this, then how much we need to pay?

Thanks in advance.

with rgds,

Prasad
