Bank of Baroda offers remunerative deposit schemes for NRIs returning to India with the intention of permanently settling down here. All your existing repatriable accounts can be transferred to RFC (Resident Foreign Currency) accounts denominated in any one/or more than one foreign currencies - USD, GBP, Euro, JPY, CAD and AUD.



Ordinary Non- Resident Accounts

Ordinary non-resident accounts will be re-designated to resident accounts in India on return of the account holder to India and consequently becoming resident in India.


Non-Resident (External) Rupee Accounts

NRE accounts will also be converted to resident rupee accounts or RFC accounts at the option of the account holder on his return to India and becoming residents in India. In case of NRE fixed deposit, the accounts will continue to earn agreed rate of interest till maturity even after these being converted to resident account.


FCNR Accounts

FCNR accounts will be converted to resident rupee accounts or RFC account at the option of the account holder on his return to India and becoming resident in India.

In case the account is converted to resident rupee account, the foreign currency amount will be converted to Indian Rupees at applicable exchange rate ruling on the day of conversion. Interest on the new deposit would be payable at the relevant rate applicable on such deposit.


RFC Accounts

In case the amount is transferred to RFC account, the rate of interest applicable to RFC account will be payable. You can also open RFC account with the assets brought by you on return as well as your foreign assets held abroad, at any future date, should you so desire.
