How to invest in US1 from India

  1. Step 1

    Open your Paasa account

    KYC takes a few minutes: PAN, Aadhaar and address proof. Your brokerage account is opened in your own name with Interactive Brokers.

  2. Step 2

    Add funds from your Indian bank account

    Remit up to $250,000 a year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme. Your bank converts the rupees to US dollars at its rate on the day you remit.

  3. Step 3

    Search US1 and buy

    Find the fund by its ticker, US1, on the SIX Swiss Exchange, and place your order.

Why invest in US1 from India

What US1 holds

The Amundi US Treasury Bond 1-3Y UCITS ETF Acc is designed with the primary objective of mirroring the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury 1-3 Year Index. This replication aims to be as precise as possible, ensuring that the fund's returns closely follow those of the dollar-denominated benchmark, irrespective of whether bond market trends are upward or downward.

Outside US estate tax

US1 is domiciled in Luxembourg, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.

Dividends reinvested for you

Dividends from US1's holdings are reinvested inside the fund, so nothing is paid out to you and there is no dividend to declare in India.

Hold a dollar asset

US1 is priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what it's worth in rupees. The rupee depreciated over 85% against the dollar between 2010 and 2025.

Paasa handles the paperwork

Investing abroad brings paperwork with it: remittance filings, capital gains reporting, foreign asset disclosure. Paasa prepares all of it for you. Your India-ready tax reports arrive at year end, ready to file.

Why US1's UCITS structure matters for Indian investors

US1 is domiciled in Luxembourg, not the US, so it is not a US-situs asset and US estate tax does not apply to it.

Capital gains are taxed in India the same way as on a US-listed ETF.
