Need a PAN for Indian bank accounts, property deals, investments or tax filing? We prepare your complete application — Form 49A or 49AA — and handle everything from the UK.
Sorted's NRI PAN service is £69, with the government processing and postage fees included — no hidden charges, versus around £125 elsewhere. We prepare Form 49A or 49AA depending on your status.
The e-PAN (a valid digital PAN) usually arrives by email in 7–12 days, and the physical card is posted to your UK address in about 20–25 days. No notary or solicitor attestation is required.
Yes — for almost any Indian financial activity: NRE/NRO bank accounts, buying or selling property, filing tax returns, and investing in shares or mutual funds. Without a PAN, tax is withheld at higher rates.
A Permanent Account Number (PAN) is essential for almost any financial transaction in India. If you're an NRI, OCI holder, or British citizen with financial interests in India, you'll need a PAN card for:
Government fee is included in our price. No hidden charges. E-PAN typically arrives by email in 7-12 days, physical card by post in 20-25 days.
Tell us whether you're an NRI with Indian passport, OCI holder, or British citizen. We'll confirm which form you need.
Passport copy, UK address proof (utility bill or bank statement), and a passport photo. That's it.
We complete the form with correct AO codes and prepare your full application package within 12 hours.
We email you the ready package. You print, stick photos, sign where marked, and post to the address we provide.
e-PAN arrives by email in 7-12 days. Physical card delivered to your UK address in 20-25 days.
If your application is rejected because of anything we filled or prepared, we redo it free. No argument, no extra fee.
Our work on your PAN application: choosing between Form 49A and 49AA, the fields we complete, the international-taxation AO code we select, the documents we format, and the checks we run on the package before you post it. If a rejection traces back to any of that, we redo the application at no cost to you.
We guarantee accuracy and submission — not the decision on your application, and not its timeline. Neither is ours to promise, and a guarantee that pretended otherwise would be a sales line rather than a guarantee. PAN differs from our consular services in one way worth stating plainly: there is no VFS appointment and no government fee for you to pay on the day, because our £69 already includes the government processing fee and postage. You sign and post the package yourself, so what happens to it in the post is outside our control. And if a fact you gave us was wrong, we’ll help you put it right, but that isn’t a rejection caused by our work.
No — with our service, no notary or solicitor attestation is required. We handle the application so you can submit directly by post.
If you hold an Indian passport (NRI), you need Form 49A. If you're a British citizen, OCI holder, or other foreign national, you need Form 49AA. We'll determine the right one for you.
E-PAN (digital version, valid as proof) arrives by email in 7-12 days. The physical laminated PAN card is posted to your UK address and typically arrives in 20-25 days.

If your application is rejected because of anything we filled or prepared, we redo it free. That is the part we control, so that is the part we stand behind: the accuracy of what goes on the form and getting it submitted correctly. We do not guarantee the decision on your application or its timeline, and we could not honestly promise either — they are not ours to give. PAN has no VFS appointment and no government fee to pay on the day, because the £69 price already includes the government processing fee and postage; you sign and post the package yourself. And if a fact you gave us was wrong, we will help you put it right, but that is not a rejection caused by our work.
