If you are referring to a bank account, I might be able to throw some light. NRI (Non Resident Indian) is usually a status given to any Indian staying and working outside India. Most or almost all Indian banks provide a type of bank account to NRIs, generally known as NRI account. Unlike a current account or savings account, NRI account is exempted from any tax in India. NRI account is given to only those who can show the proof of being NRI, like a valid work visa or so. hope this info helps.
