New PAN application

Choose the correct applicant route, prepare your documents and review every detail before submission.

Choose your route

First check whether a PAN is already allotted to you. A lost card is a reprint request, not a reason to obtain another PAN.
Select citizenship separately from residence. An Indian citizen living abroad is not automatically a foreign citizen.
Use the current individual or entity form. The official forms page lists Forms 93, 94, 95 and 96; the old 49A/49AA labels are historical.

Your preparation checklist

Write the applicant name and date carefully from supporting records. Expand initials where the selected form requires it.
Prepare the contact details, residence or office address and communication address requested for your category.
Keep identity, address and birth or entity evidence ready. Check the current provider list rather than assuming one document meets every requirement.

How NISE COMPORT assistance works

Choose a service and complete our guided assistance request. Saved profile details are offered for your review.
Review the summary and send the request. Your private account receives a NISE request reference.
Staff confirm the service scope, supporting documents and separate charges. Official submission happens through the applicable provider process.
Retain the provider acknowledgement after official submission. It is different from the NISE service reference.

Frequently asked questions

Can I apply for a child?

Use the minor route and include the parent or guardian contact. The official provider determines the representative and evidence requirements.

Is there a guaranteed completion date?

No. Document checks, discrepancies, provider processing and dispatch affect completion. Ask for an update using the acknowledgement from the provider.

Will I pay on this website?

This request does not take payment. The team confirms the assistance charge and any separate provider fee before proceeding.
