What Documents Are Required for GeM Registration in 2026

Having the right documents ready before you start is the single biggest factor in how smoothly GeM registration goes.

At minimum, you'll need: PAN and address proof of the entity, GST registration certificate, Udyam (MSME) registration for EMD exemption, bank account details and a cancelled cheque, authorization letter from the brand/OEM if reselling, and a Digital Signature Certificate of the authorised signatory.

The most common cause of delay isn't a missing document — it's a mismatched one. Your entity name, PAN, GST number, and bank account details all need to match exactly across every document you submit; even small formatting differences can trigger a rejection or query.

If you're a reseller, budget extra time for the OEM authorization letter specifically — it needs to be drafted in a format GeM's verification system expects, with the right clauses, not just any letter on the brand's letterhead.
