To open a bank account in India, you generally need to provide documents that verify your identity and address. Under the Know Your Customer (KYC) guidelines, the most common documents required include:
- Proof of Identity: Aadhaar card, Voter ID, PAN card, Passport, or Driving License.
- Proof of Address: Aadhaar card, utility bills (electricity or water), or a rent agreement.
- Recent passport-sized photographs.
- PAN card or Form 60 if a PAN is not available.
Additional documents may be required for specific account types like business or joint accounts.
