DIR-3 KYC for Directors
Keep your Director Identification Number (DIN) active with timely annual KYC filing. Leegal handles the process for individual directors and companies alike.
What Is DIR-3 KYC?
DIR-3 KYC is an annual filing requirement for every individual holding a Director Identification Number (DIN), confirming their identity and contact details are current with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
Missing the annual deadline results in the DIN being marked as 'Deactivated', which can affect the director's ability to be appointed or continue as a director until it's reactivated with a late fee.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who needs to file DIR-3 KYC?
Every individual holding a Director Identification Number, whether or not they currently serve as a director on any company's board.
What happens if I miss the DIR-3 KYC deadline?
Your DIN gets marked 'Deactivated', and you'll need to file with a late fee to reactivate it.
Can I file DIR-3 KYC myself online?
Yes, but details need to match MCA records precisely, and errors can cause rejection — our team handles this to avoid back-and-forth.
Do I need to file DIR-3 KYC if I'm not currently a director of any company?
Yes, the requirement is tied to holding a DIN, not to actively serving as a director.
How long does DIN reactivation take after a late filing?
It's typically processed shortly after the late filing and fee payment are completed.
