NRE account is the short form for a Non-Resident External Account. It allows NRIs, PIOs, and
Individuals in specific roles to deposit money in foreign currency and withdraw it in Indian
currency. An ordinary bank account does not support this kind of transaction. Consequently, an
NRE account becomes a must. Some of its most significant benefits include full tax exemption
and free repatriation.
