What is PAN and why do you need it?
Permanent Account Number (PAN) is a unique 10-digit alphanumeric number provided by the government for any individual or taxpayer. Having a PAN identifies the holder as a taxpayer in Nepal. This is done to keep track of the taxes paid by the citizens.
PAN is used for various financial activities such as getting salary, import, export, asking for loans, buying mutual funds, business transactions, etc. It is mandatory for all the salaried workers of both private and government firms to register and have a PAN from the fiscal year 2019/20.
It is free of cost and can neither be changed nor renewed once it is issued. Although by now, many have their PAN cards, some are still struggling with the procedure of PAN registration in Nepal. However, you can easily issue your PAN using Nagarik App.
