What is a PAN Card?

A PAN (Permanent Account Number) Card is a 10-digit alphanumeric identifier issued by the Income Tax Department of India. It acts as a key proof of identity and is mandatory for many financial, business, and tax-related activities.

For exporters, a PAN card is not just an ID—it’s a vital requirement for legal compliance, smooth transactions, and building credibility in global trade. - Pan Card KYC xtramiles
