Understanding DIR-3 KYC Compliance — the annual KYC verification every individual holding a Director Identification Number must complete — starts with knowing exactly what the process involves. Here's a step-by-step breakdown for every person holding an active DIN, whether or not currently serving as a director.
Step 1
Confirm the DIN status and whether KYC is due.
Step 2
Gather identity and address proof documents.
Step 3
Complete OTP verification on registered mobile and email.
Step 4
File the DIR-3 KYC form before the deadline.
Documents to Keep Ready
Before starting, it helps to have these ready so the process moves without unnecessary back-and-forth:
- Valid DIN issued to the individual
- PAN and Aadhaar for identity verification
- Personal mobile number and email for OTP verification
- Digital Signature Certificate for filing
- Address proof for the registered address on file
- Passport-size photograph
What to Watch Out For
Missing the annual deadline and having the DIN marked as deactivated — this is one of the most frequent slip-ups at this stage, so it's worth double-checking before you proceed.
