Free to start · No onboarding forms · Made in India

The new workload

  • Clients forwarding bank emails about EDFs they’ve never heard of.
  • Repeating code selection and form filling for every invoice.
  • Deadlines that land at the end of every month.

Your EDF in 2 steps

  1. Add your invoice. Upload a PDF or photo, or create the invoice in Saathi.
  2. Review and generate. Saathi fills the details, suggests the SAC and RBI Purpose Code with reasons, and prepares bank-ready files.

How Saathi helps your practice

Invoice details are extracted automatically; you review instead of typing.

Consistent output

The same bank-ready Excel and PDF every time.

You stay in control

Saathi prepares; you and your client review and submit.

Why now

Under the RBI notification FEMA 23(R)/2026-RB, in force from 1 October 2026, service exports may need an Export Declaration Form (EDF) filed through your bank. For a service invoice, the EDF is generally due within 30 days after the end of the month of the invoice — for October 2026 invoices, generally by 30 November 2026. Your bank’s requirements always apply.
