Applications can also be made over internet through an online facility. Types of PAN applications There are two types of applications: 1) Application for allotment of PAN (Form 49 A)
2) 'Request for New PAN Card or/and Changes or Correction in PAN data' How to apply Applicants should go through the instructions and guidelines provided in the application form before filling the form. Applicant should submit the duly filled and signed form to any TIN-FC or PAN centre. Alternatively, applicants can submit an online application. Applicant should ensure that the necessary supporting documents are submitted alongwith the application. Details of the documents required are provided in the application form. More useful information on PAN is also available under section FAQ. New guidelines for PAN applications by non residents – New PAN application New guidelines for PAN applications by non residents – Change request Communication NSDL forwards the application details to ITD after digitization of the form submitted. In case of application for allotment of PAN (Form 49A), a new PAN is allotted by ITD. NSDL prints the PAN card after allotment of PAN by ITD and dispatches the same along with an allotment letter to the respective applicant. In case of 'Request for New PAN Card or/and Changes or Correction in PAN data' the application request is forwarded to ITD for update of the database and after confirmation from ITD, a new PAN card is printed and dispatched to the applicant. All the communications are sent at the address mentioned as 'address for communication' in the form. Applicants, specifying valid e-mail ID in the application, are informed about the new PAN through e-mail in addition to the PAN allotment letter. Applicants are advised to mention their telephone number (preferably a mobile number) in the application. This ensures faster communication in case of any discrepancy in the application.
