— Amit Gupta
Hyderabad's HITEC City IT corridor and Genome Valley life-sciences cluster have made it a major destination for new company and compliance registrations, backed by a Telangana state government that actively courts new business formation. In Hyderabad's business environment, the practical bottleneck is rarely the regulation itself — it's assembling clean, consistent documentation before submission, which is where most delays actually originate.
Whether you're a new or established business in Hyderabad, StartRight4U prepares your FFMC Licence filing to clear review without delay.
FFMC Licence — What It Covers
The Full-Fledged Money Changer licence is RBI's route for non-bank entities to legally deal in foreign exchange under FEMA, 1999 — buying and selling foreign currency notes, coins, and traveller's cheques. It's what allows dedicated currency-exchange businesses, distinct from banks, to operate counters serving travellers and other permitted customers.
FFMC Licence Categories
- Category I: full authorisation to both buy and sell foreign exchange, including for travel purposes, within RBI's guidelines
- Restricted Money Changer (RMC): a purchase-only authorisation for foreign currency notes and traveller's cheques, at a lower capital threshold
Eligibility Requirements
- Incorporation under the Companies Act, 2013, with money-changing named as a business object
- Net Owned Funds of at least ₹25 lakh (single branch) or ₹50 lakh (multiple branches / Category I)
- A clean track record for the promoter and director group — no defaults or regulatory red flags
- A workable business plan detailing locations, staffing, and cash-control processes
Documents to Prepare
- Certificate of incorporation, MOA and AOA
- Chartered Accountant-certified net worth certificate with audited financials
- Board resolution approving the licence application
- KYC records for directors and key managerial personnel
- Business premises and security/control arrangement details
The FFMC Application Process
- Incorporate the company with money-changing as a stated business activity
