Vinod Rawal

Vinod Rawal is a Chartered Accountant and IRS Enrolled Agent with 38 years of experience in taxation, bringing together a rare command of both Indian and US tax systems. As a cross-border tax strategist, he has spent decades helping Non-Resident Indians and their families navigate the complex financial terrain that spans two countries — from income tax and FEMA compliance to repatriation and succession planning.

A familiar voice on Indian television and in print media, Vinod is frequently invited to discuss taxation and money matters with a wide public audience, translating complicated financial and legal concepts into language that ordinary families can use. He is also a sought-after public speaker and keynote speaker, known for engaging audiences on the evolving landscape of cross-border finance and taxation.

Vinod's extensive travels across the globe, and his continuing engagement with Indian families abroad, gave him a firsthand view of a quiet but widespread problem: the emotional and financial disconnect that grows between NRIs and the families they left behind in India. Bridging Borders: Taxation, Repatriation and Succession was written to close that gap — offering practical financial guidance while helping families stay connected across the distance that separates them.

Through his writing, media appearances, and speaking engagements, Vinod continues to serve as a bridge between two countries and two generations, bringing clarity to the financial questions that often go unasked within families living continents apart.
