How does close and reopen account work?

I will be leaving the country for at least 2 years. If I completely close my Zerodha account now, is re-opening allowed later in same name?

If yes, is the process just like opening a new account or different for re-opening?

Hi @saiu

You can reopen an account under the same name after closing it, and the procedure will be the same as opening a new account.

In the meantime, if you plan to continue investing, you can also explore our NRI account options. You can find the steps to convert your resident account to an NRI account here.
