Does Stripe support INR

Yes, Stripe supports INR (Indian Rupee) for charging customers and for payouts to local bank accounts, but only for Stripe accounts registered and based in India.

• Payouts: Stripe accounts in India can receive payouts only in INR. Stripe accounts registered outside India cannot receive INR payouts.
• Presentment currency: For customers located outside India, an India-based Stripe account can present prices in INR or in other currencies, provided the account meets Stripe's requirements for international payments.
• Account availability: Stripe services in India are invite-only, so Indian businesses cannot open a new account through the regular sign-up flow and must request an invite instead. Stripe's focus is on businesses scaling internationally.
• Eligible entities: Stripe supports India-based businesses set up as a company, Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) or sole proprietorship. Individuals are not supported for international transactions.

Businesses comparing gateways often look at a Stripe vs PayPal international payments 2025 breakdown, but the INR rules above come from Stripe's own support and documentation pages.

Before relying on INR support, check two things: whether your business is registered in India as an eligible entity, and whether you have been invited to open a Stripe account there. A Stripe account based in another country will not be able to settle funds in INR.
