What documents are needed to open a bank account

To open a bank account in India, you must provide KYC (Know Your Customer) documents to verify your identity and address. Essential documents typically include:

• Proof of Identity: Aadhaar card, PAN card, Voter ID, Passport, or Driving License.
• Proof of Address: Aadhaar card, recent utility bills, or Ration card.
• Recent passport-sized photographs.
• PAN card or Form 60 if a PAN is not available.

Most banks also require a minimum initial deposit to activate the new account.
