How to file an EDF for AdMob earnings

English

AdMob earnings are advertising receipts. The performance report is not the payment. Use the transactions list or the printable receipt, the same way you would for website AdSense.

Which AdMob file to use

AdMob’s reports download is a performance CSV: impressions, clicks, and estimated earnings. That is not the sum the bank received. Open payments, and use the transactions list or the printable payment receipt.

Website AdSense and AdMob often share one payments profile. If they pay you together, one receipt can cover both. If you also have AdSense for YouTube, that is a separate account and a separate receipt.

The invoice line

Treat the payment number as the invoice number and the payment date as the invoice date. The amount is the amount received. The recipient is the Google payments entity on the receipt, and Google is the third-party payer.

The service is advertising, SAC 998361. A short description is online advertising space supplied through Google AdMob. Purpose code P1007 is what banks commonly apply. It is not a field you add as an extra Part 2B column.

Deadline

The rules apply from 1 October 2026. File within 30 days after the month of the invoice. October invoices are due by 30 November 2026. For services other than software, filing on or before the payment date is also allowed.

Foreign currency must be brought into India within nine months of the invoice date. Rupee invoices or rupee settlement use twelve months. The bank can extend either period when you ask and the reason is reasonable.

Copy the receipt onto the form, add your PAN and the receiving bank’s AD code, sign it, and leave the certification block for the bank. Free EDF does not file the form.
