Choose Your Ideal PAN Card Service

An NRI PAN is similar to a regular Indian PAN, which every Indian uses. There is no such difference. As the Indian Income Tax Department issues a PAN card for indian, similarly, it issues a PAN card for NRIs. NRIs need a PAN card for running out financial transactions in India or if they have an income from India. The card has a unique identification code, which is mandatory for opening bank accounts, investing, buying or selling property, filing taxes, or other activities in India. 

The only difference you will notice is that the procedure, forms, fees, and processing time vary for an NRI PAN card.

A Permanent Account Number for NRIs is essential to carry out your various economic and financial activities in India. According to SEBI guidelines, NRIs who trade in the Indian stock market are required to have a PAN number. However, here are some reasons why you should have a PAN number:

1. If you wish to invest in mutual funds in India, you must apply for an Indian PAN number.
2. To open an NRO account or NRE account in India that handles Indian rupees or foreign currency for NRIs, a PAN card is needed.
3. As an NRI, you need a PAN number to carry out any proprietary transaction that requires Rupees 10 lakh, including buying or selling.
4. A PAN number is also required if you have any taxable income from India, such as salary, capital gains, dividends, interest, or rent.
5. A PAN number is also required if you need to register a company in India or obtain a GST registration.
6. You need a PAN number to avoid paying higher TDS, as without one, the individual is subject to higher tax rates that apply to property sales and investments. 
7. Lastly, the Income Tax Department of India uses your PAN number to monitor your tax obligations and income.
