Applying for a PAN card in Angamaly: documents, fees and timelines
Everything you need to apply for a new PAN, correct an existing one or request a reprint, including what NRIs and minors need.
The short answer
For most residents, Aadhaar alone proves identity, address and date of birth for a new PAN. Bring the original and a photograph. An e-PAN usually arrives within a few working days and the physical card within two to three weeks.
A Permanent Account Number is required for almost every financial step in India: opening a bank account, investing in mutual funds, buying property, and filing income tax returns. Applications are straightforward when the documents are consistent. Most delays come from a name or date of birth that does not match across documents.
Documents for a new PAN
- Proof of identity: Aadhaar, passport, voter ID or driving licence
- Proof of address: Aadhaar, passport, utility bill or bank statement
- Proof of date of birth: Aadhaar, birth certificate, passport or school leaving certificate
- One recent passport-size photograph
Aadhaar alone satisfies all three proofs for most Indian residents, provided the details on it are correct.
Minors and NRIs
A minor's PAN is applied for by a parent or guardian using the guardian's documents and the child's birth certificate. NRIs apply with a passport copy and either an overseas address proof or an Indian address; the card can be delivered abroad for an additional courier fee.
Corrections and reprints
Changes to name, date of birth, photograph or signature are made through the correction form with the supporting document for the corrected detail. A reprint for a lost or damaged card uses the same form with no changes marked.
Fees and timelines
Government fees are fixed and published by the income tax department, currently under ₹110 for delivery within India and higher for delivery abroad. An e-PAN is usually issued within a few working days and the physical card within two to three weeks.
Linking PAN with Aadhaar
Linking is mandatory and an unlinked PAN becomes inoperative, which blocks mutual fund transactions. If your details do not match between the two, correct the PAN first and then link.
