Let’s’ take a look at the steps involved in filing a DIR- 3 KYC:
The first step would be to download the form the MCA website.
Provide DIN details
The individual/Director must provide his DIN in the KYC form, the status of which is ‘Approved’. Directors’ whose DIN has been deactivated due to non-filing of the KYC can fill the form even after the due date after paying late filing fees.
Name and relevant credentials: The applicant must mandatorily enter his and his father’s first and last names. The name entered should match the one mentioned in the PAN. The address mentioned here will be verified with the PAN database. Acronyms, short forms, and single alphabets are not allowed.
Nationality: It is important to declare your nationality. In the case of foreign nationals who serve as company directors, nationality, as declared in the passport, should be selected.
Declaration of age: A person must enter his date of birth in the DD/MM/YYYY format. It is important that a person is a minimum of 18 years of age while filling this application.
Address: While filing the form it is mandatory to enter your permanent residential address. Make sure that these details match the proof of permanent address that is to be attached. A foreign pin code can only be entered only if the state selected is NA. In case the present residential address is not the same as your permanent residential address, it is mandatory to enter your present residential address also.
Verification of PAN: It is mandatory to declare your Permanent Account Number (PAN). After entering your PAN details click on the ‘Verify income-tax PAN’ button. The system will then verify your details based on the PAN card number. Please note: The PAN mentioned in the form and the PAN mentioned in the DSC must be the same for successful validation. If the foreign nationals do not have a PAN, the name mentioned in the form must be the same as the name mentioned in the DSC for successful validation.
Updating Contact Details and OTP verifications: It is important to enter your personal mobile number, which will be verified by an OTP. Country codes other than +91/91/0 will be allowed only if the individual is not a resident of India. Likewise, you need to enter your personal email ID, which will also be verified by an OTP. After submitting these details, click on the ‘Generate OTP’ button. Separate OTPs will be sent to your mobile number and email ID.
Attachments to be made
The applicant must upload the following documents. Make sure to get these forms attested too before uploading:
Note: Any other optional attachments should be digitally signed by the applicant.
Make sure the eForm is digitally signed by a practising Chartered Accountant/Cost Accountant, or a Company Secretary. It is important to enter the details of the practising professional and then attach their digital signature.
After a thorough proofread, click on the ‘Submit’ button.
SRN Generation
Upon the successful submission of the eForm DIR-3 KYC, an SRN will be generated for the user. This SRN will be used for future correspondence with the MCA.
Email communication
An email with the approval of the receipt of the form will be sent to the personal email ID of the applicant. Once the email of approval is received, filing eForm DIR-3 KYC is complete.
