PAN Card 2.0 is a major upgrade by the Income Tax Department, introducing a digital e-PAN with a secure QR code for instant verification and enhanced security.
PAN Card 2.0 provides a digital e-PAN featuring a secure QR code, emailed free to your registered address. A nominal fee applies for a physical card.
All PAN-related services—applications, updates, and corrections—are accessible through a single, comprehensive online portal for easier management.
PAN 2.0 aligns with Digital India, enabling PAN to serve as a universal identifier across multiple government digital platforms.
Advanced cybersecurity protocols and a dedicated PAN data vault safeguard taxpayer information from data breaches and unauthorized access.
The process is entirely digital, reducing paperwork, administrative expenses, and environmental impact through eco-conscious practices.
Applicants need to submit valid identity, address, and date of birth proofs such as Aadhaar, passport, bank statement, or birth certificate.
Existing PAN cards remain valid; upgrading to PAN 2.0 is free and optional, with e-PAN delivered to your email within 30 minutes of application.
