Is Signature Mandatory on a PAN Card?

Yes, a signature is mandatory for a PAN Card. The signature is an essential part of the PAN Card as it validates the document and makes it official.

Importance of Signature

• Validation: A PAN Card without a signature is considered invalid and cannot be used for official purposes.
• Online Verification: Without a signature, the PAN Card is not eligible for online PAN verification, which can affect various financial transactions and services.

Note: Ensure that your PAN Card is signed properly to avoid any issues with its validity and acceptance. If your PAN Card lacks a signature, you may need to apply for a new one or update the existing one.
