Form DIR-3 KYC for Directors
A Director Identification Number (DIN) is a unique identifier assigned to individuals who are directors or wish to become directors of a corporation. DIN is obtained by submitting an application in eForm DIR-3, originally intended as a one-time process.
However, due to an amendment to MCA’s regulations, all directors with DIN are now required to submit their KYC (Know Your Customer) details annually through e-Form DIR 3 KYC.
Purpose of Form DIR-3 KYC
Directors are required to inform all companies in which they serve as directors of their allotted DIN in Form DIR-3B within 30 days of receiving the DIN approval. Similarly, Secretaries and Managers of companies must inform the company of their Income-tax Permanent Account Number (PAN). The company then needs to submit information about the DIN of directors to the Registrar in Form DIR-3C within 15 days of receiving the intimation.
Who is Required to Submit Form DIR 3 KYC?
Directors meeting the following conditions according to recent MCA announcements are required to submit their KYC details:
- DIN was assigned by or on March 31, 2018.
- DIN is in an approved status.
KYC is also required for disqualified directors.
eForm DIR 3 KYC Overview
- First-time filers must use eForm DIR-3 KYC.
- Updates to KYC details must be made through eForm DIR-3 KYC.
- Directors who have previously submitted eForm DIR-3 KYC and do not require updates can perform annual KYC through the DIR-3 KYC web service.
Applicable Fee for Form DIR-3 KYC
No fee is payable if filed within the due date of the respective financial year. However, filing after the due date incurs a fee of Rs. 5000 for DIN status ‘Deactivated due to non-filing of DIR-3 KYC’.
