PAN is the anchor identifier for financial onboarding in India. The PAN Verification API confirms the number is valid and active, returns the name held on record and compares it with the name you supply, so you can spot typos, impersonation and inactive or deactivated PANs before money moves.

FAQ
What teams ask before adding the PAN Verification API to their integration.
The API compares the name you send with the name on the tax department record and returns a match verdict, so partial matches and spelling variations are handled consistently rather than by manual comparison.
Yes. The API works for individual and entity PANs. For companies, pair it with GSTIN-by-PAN and the MCA company lookup to complete the business profile.
PAN verification for KYC and onboarding is a standard, expected check. emver still recommends capturing purpose-limited consent and passing the consent record with the request.
The response flags the status explicitly so your workflow can route the case to review instead of failing silently.
Usually called with the PAN Verification API, on the same key.
