How to receive international payments in India PayPal

To receive international payments in India via PayPal, you need to create a PayPal Business account, link it to your Indian bank account, and provide your PayPal email to clients abroad. Once a payment arrives, you can withdraw the funds to your local bank account in INR. However, PayPal typically charges currency conversion fees of around 3% to 4% on top of transaction fees, and withdrawals can take several business days to reflect in your account.

For a more cost-effective alternative, consider Skydo, an RBI-authorised platform built specifically for Indian exporters and freelancers. Skydo offers faster settlements, transparent pricing, and better exchange rates than traditional options. You can explore a detailed PayPal overview to understand how different platforms compare for receiving international payments in India and choose the option that best suits your business needs.
