how many days take to update pan card

The time taken to update your PAN card generally ranges from **15 to 20 working days** for the physical card to be delivered to your registered address. This period covers the processing time by the Income Tax Department, printing, and dispatch. If you apply online using the Aadhaar-based e-KYC and e-Sign paperless method, you may receive your updated e-PAN card (digital copy) via email much faster, sometimes within 4 to 7 days. In rare cases, especially for complex corrections or issues with documentation, the overall process can take up to 30 days. You can monitor the status using the acknowledgement number provided during the application.
