Form RFD-10 is a refund application made by any specialized agency of UN or any multilateral financial institution and organization, consulate or embassy of foreign countries etc. It is similar to the GST Refund Application form RFD-01 and RFD-01A.
After RFD-01, the acknowledgement is received in Form RFD 02. The Form RFD 03, which is the deficiency memo, suggests any pending/ missing status in the application. Form RFD 04 is the provisional refund order after which Form RFD 05, the payment advice is issued. It is followed by the Final Refund Order in Form RFD 06, while Form RFD-07 is an order for complete adjustment of sanctioned GST Refund and, Form RFD-08 the notice of rejection of the application for refund. Form RFD-09 is also known as Reply to Show Cause Notice. It is the reply by the applicant on form RFD-08.

- RFD-01 is to be filed by regular taxpayers whereas RFD-10 is to be filed by a specialised agency of the United Nations or any Multilateral Financial Institution and Organization, Consulate or Embassy of foreign countries, etc.
- The above-mentioned taxpayers are eligible to claim the refund for tax paid on the purchase or sale of goods and services for their official use.
