How much amount of Foreign currency can one (non-resident Indian with Indian passport holder) bring to India on my trip once in every 2 months. How much Foreign currency that I can take back abroad without having to declare at the customs and other immigration officials.

A person coming into India from abroad can bring with him foreign exchange without any limit provided if foreign currency notes, or travellers cheques exceed US$ 10,000/- or its equivalent and/or the value of foreign currency exceeds US$ 5,000/- or its equivalent, it should be declared to the Customs Authorities at the Airport in the Currency Declaration Form (CDF), on arrival in India.

There is no limit to carry foreign exchange to the US. However, amounts exceeding USD 5,000 or equivalent and foreign exchange in the form of currency notes, bank notes or traveller’s cheques in exceeding USD 10,000 or its equivalent must be declared to the customs.
