You can apply for the Pan Card in two modes.

• Physical Mode
• Digital Mode

In Physical mode, you have to send the physical copies along with the PAN Application form to the nearest UTIITSL center.

In digital mode, applicants do not have to submit any physical copies. The application forms will be signed using an Aadhaar-based eSignature.

After the mandatory verification of the applicant’s information, the application is processed within a time span of 15-20 days. In cases of corrections, processing of the PAN card correction application form takes a little longer and the card is issued within 25 days.

If you do not send a hard copy of your PAN Card to a nearby UTI office then the PAN number will be canceled by the Income Tax Department.

• PAN application Form (Front Page & Backside) and supporting documents like POI, POA, and DOB Proof as provided by the applicant. These documents should be scanned in 200dpi color - PDFA format (Size: Maximum up to 2MB)
• Photo Scanning 300 dpi, Color,213 X 213 px (Size: less than 30 KB)

The processing fee to apply for a PAN card is Rs.107. If Applicant wants only an E-Pan card then the payable amount will be Rs. 72 (in case of correction).

In such cases, Left Hand Thumb impression of the applicant should be affixed on Form 49A at the place meant for signatures. It should be attested by a Magistrate/ Notary Public/ Gazetted Officer with the official seal and stamp.

No, You don't need to upload the customer documents if you have applied for a PAN card from the Digital Mode. But, you need to verify the application using OTP verification.

It comes when the customer's Aadhar number is already linked with another PAN card which means the customer already has a PAN Card.
