Having a Permanent Account Number (PAN) card is essential for conducting various financial transactions. However, carrying your PAN card with you can be risky, as there is a higher chance of misplacing or losing it. On the other hand, Aadhaar is a unique 12-digit identity number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI).
An Aadhaar card serves as proof of identity and address for multiple purposes, including opening a bank account, obtaining a mobile connection, applying for a passport or driving license, and more.
If you find that the residential address on your PAN card is misspelt or if you have moved to a new address, you may need to update it. To update the address information on your PAN card using your Aadhaar card, follow these step-by-step instructions.
