PAN 2.0 Announced: Will Your Old PAN Still Work? How To Get QR-Enabled Card? FAQs Answered

India’s tax administration has introduced the new PAN 2.0 card, which comes equipped with a QR code and enhanced security features. The new card will serve as a major step toward modernizing and digitizing India’s tax system, facilitating smoother transactions and increasing transparency.

One of the main queries surrounding the PAN 2.0 is whether the old PAN cards will still be valid. The short answer is yes; your existing PAN card will continue to function normally for all tax-related purposes. The new PAN cards are primarily intended for those who will be issued PAN for the first time or those opting for an updated version. This move aims to boost security by incorporating a QR code that can be scanned to access the cardholder’s basic information, further reducing the chances of fraud.

Individuals who wish to update or obtain the new QR-enabled PAN card can do so by visiting the official income tax website. The new PAN card will not only include a QR code but also a hologram and other security features, making it more difficult to counterfeit. Additionally, the government has assured that the process of obtaining a new card will be simple and quick, available both online and at authorized centers across the country.

Moreover, the introduction of PAN 2.0 is seen as a significant move toward digitalizing the entire tax collection and filing system in India. It is expected to make verification processes much more efficient, improving tax compliance rates.
