Balasahana Suresh
Sometimes, we find ourselves in situations where our PAN card is lost, stolen, or becomes so old and damaged that it’s no longer usable. In such cases, getting a new PAN card is not only essential for financial and legal purposes but has also become easier than ever, thanks to modern online services.

What is a PVC PAN Card?

A PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) PAN card is the new, durable version of the traditional PAN card. Unlike the old laminated version, PVC cards are more compact, durable, and resistant to wear and tear. They are also equipped with advanced features like a QR code that stores your PAN details, making verification faster and more secure.

How to Apply for a New PVC PAN Card

Online Application:

Visit the official websites of NSDL e-Gov or UTIITSL, which are authorized to issue PAN cards in India.

Choose the option for “Reprint/Correction of PAN” if your card is lost, damaged, or you need an updated version.

Fill in Your Details:

Enter your PAN number (if available), personal details, and your correct address for delivery.

For lost or stolen cards, you will need to provide an affidavit or declaration stating the circumstances.

Upload Required Documents:

Proof of identity (Aadhaar card, passport, voter ID, etc.)

Proof of address (utility bill, Aadhaar, bank statement, etc.)

Recent passport-data-sized photograph (if required)

Pay the Fee:

The fee for a PVC PAN card is generally around ₹110–₹120 for indian residents, including postal charges for home delivery.

Track Your PAN Card:

After applying, you can track the status online using the acknowledgment number provided during submission.

The PVC PAN card is usually delivered to your home within 10–15 business days.
