PAN card contains a ten digit alphanumeric number (Permanent Account Number) and is issued by the Income Tax Department of India. PAN is not only an important document but also required while making any monetary transactions, sale and purchase, applying for Visa, and many more.

If you have lost/misplaced your PAN Card or it has been stolen, then you can reapply it online at the comfort of your home.

To reapply for the PAN Card, the cardholder must do the following:

  1. Open the TIN-NSDL website on any electronic device. 

  2. Select "Changes or corrections in existing PAN data/Reprint of PAN card (No changes in existing PAN data)" as the application type.

  3. Enter all the information as asked in the form including your name,DOB etc.

  4. A token number will be generated for future use and sent to the applicant's registered email address. 

  5. Complete all of the fields on the "Personal Details" page. 

  6. Submit your e-KYC and e-sign. You will need your Aadhaar card to verify the information provided and an OTP will be sent to the Aadhaar-registered mobile number. 

  7. Upload your scanned documents as asked in the form including photo, Aadhaar Card etc.

  8. Select between a physical and an electronic PAN card. E-PAN cards require an email address. Fill in your contact information and document information, then submit the application.

  9. After submitting the application, you will be navigated to the payments page. After paying the application fees, an acknowledgement receipt will be generated. Your new PAN Card will be issued within 15-20 working days.
