Alternatively, click [Verify Now] directly on the homepage when it appears.
2. Click [Get Verified].
3. Select your country of residence. Please ensure that your country of residence is consistent in your ID documents.
4. Select your nationality and click [Continue].
Please make sure that all the information entered is consistent with your ID documents. You will not be able to change the information once confirmed.
5. Verify your identity via Digilocker or Aadhar OTP (recommended), or directly upload an official ID document (Aadhar Card, Voter ID, Drivers License, or Passport). If you opt for Digilocker or Aadhar OTP, then it will not be required to upload ID documents or conduct face verification.
To use Digilocker: Link your DigiLocker account and provide your consent to share your Aadhar Card and PAN Verification Record for KYC purposes.
To use Aadhar OTP: Enter your Aadhar number and verify the same using the OTP received on your Aadhar linked phone number and email address. Then click [Continue].
Official document upload with Liveness Check: Choose to directly upload any of your official ID documents (Aadhar Card, Voter ID, Drivers License, or Passport). Your photos should clearly show the full ID document. For example, if you are using an ID card, you have to take photos of the front and back of your ID card.
You’ll need to complete a liveness check. Follow the instructions to verify.
If you wish to complete the liveness check using your mobile phone, choose the option and scan the QR code to proceed.
6. Provide your PAN details. This last step is applicable if you have opted for DigiLocker with consent to provide only Aadhar details, or Aadhar OTP, or direct ID document upload followed by a liveness check. This step will not be required if you opt for DigiLocker and provide consent to share PAN (along with Aadhar).
