PAN-Aadhaar linkage is mandatory for most individuals, and an unlinked PAN can become inoperative, blocking TDS credits and financial transactions. This API tells you definitively whether the pair you hold is linked, along with the reason when it is not.
Use it as a standalone compliance check or as a follow-up to PAN verification when the seeding status needs to be confirmed against a particular Aadhaar rather than in general.

FAQ
What teams ask before adding the PAN-Aadhaar Link Check API to their integration.
PAN verification tells you whether the PAN is seeded with some Aadhaar. This check confirms linkage with the specific Aadhaar you provide, which is what matters when you hold both identifiers for a person.
When the pair is not linked, the response explains why, for example the PAN is unlinked entirely or linked to a different Aadhaar, so your team knows what to ask the person to fix.
No. It is used for the lookup and not persisted in plain form. Responses carry masked identifiers only.
Usually called with the PAN-Aadhaar Link Check API, on the same key.
