How to change bank account number

To change your bank account number, you generally need to close your existing account and open a new one, as bank account numbers are unique and permanent. To do this, follow these steps:

• Visit your bank branch and submit a request to close the old account.
• Fill out the application form for a new savings or current account.
• Provide the necessary KYC documents, such as your Aadhaar card, PAN card, and recent photographs.
• Once the new account is active, update your new details for any linked services like salary credits or direct benefit transfers.
