Steps

  1. Open PAN Validator.
  2. Paste the 10-character PAN; confirm entity letter (4th character) matches the holder type.
  3. Fix typos before pasting into the KYC / tax form.
  4. If you also need GSTIN, use GST Number Validator.
  5. Read PAN vs Aadhaar vs GSTIN if unsure which ID the form wants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a green check mean the PAN is active?

No. Only the Income Tax / NSDL databases confirm issuance and status.
