Malaysian Indians generally fall into two categories for PAN applications: (1) Malaysian citizens of Indian descent who need to use Form 95 along with their MyKad (national identity card) and Malaysian passport, and (2) Indian nationals residing in Malaysia, who should use either Form 93 or 95 depending on their residency status, along with their Indian passport and documents like MyPR or a work permit for address verification. Both the Malaysian MyKad and MyPR can serve as valid address proof for Indian PAN applications. A significant number of Malaysian Indian families have ancestral ties to Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
