FCRA renewal now needs to be planned with the 2026 amendments in mind. Registration is valid for five years and you must file Form FC-3C at least six months before expiry, but renewal now depends on showing reasonable activity. Under the new FCRA Rule 14A, you are expected to have utilised at least ten lakh rupees of foreign contribution over the last two financial years for your stated purpose. If this threshold is not met, the Ministry can refuse renewal or even cancel registration.
Existing associations also have to specify their purposes and the States or UTs where they will work by filing Form FC-6F within one year of 22 June 2026. All foreign contributions must be received only in the designated FCRA account at SBI, New Delhi Main Branch, and no other funds can be mixed in that account. Annual return reporting in Form FC-4 has become more detailed, with stronger disclosure of activities, donors, and utilisation.
OZG Digital’s FCRA expert team factors these changes into every renewal. We check whether you meet the 10 lakh utilisation test, help you file Form FC-6F to lock in your purposes and geographies, and ensure your FCRA account and returns are aligned with the amended rules. We then handle Form FC-3C filing, DSC, fee payment, and query responses until you receive the renewed certificate. You can reach us via our official website, support chat, and email for a tech-enabled renewal experience under the new FCRA framework.
