    hello,
    recently paypal seems to have changed the policy, or rather RBI seems to have changed it, and now they need the PAN card added to the paypal account.
    well I have a few queries...
    -> I have applied for a PAN card. how much time does it usually take to get it?
    -> and by the time, I have added my fathers PAN card, can i change it afterwards?

    okay thats all, any kind of input would be great as well.

    Regards
    Rahul

    PAN Card will take around 8-10 days to reach your home.
    I don't think you can change the PAN card and I have not seen that option anywhere in PayPal.

    NO you cannot change the PAN card afterwards....and I do not think your Fathers PAN card will work with paypal on your name.....though I am not sure about it......

    As you have already applied for a Pan Card for yourself there's no need to add your father's Pan Card number in your paypal account. Rightnow there is no any option available to change that in paypal so better you wait few more days or else you need to contact paypal through phone call and request them to change it once you'll receive your own Pan Number.

    DON.

    Why unnecessarily hurry to put your father's PAN when there is no need to do so! PAN number is not yet compulsory for Paypal and so you might as well wait... till your own PAN number gets allotted to you! :)

    If you have aleady submitted your father's PAN number and they have accepted it... do not bother to change or contact them! Do whatever is necessary only when it becomes mandatory!

    yes keep using ur fathers PAN card .
    they only check by last name.

    so they wont bother u .

    or if u reaaly wanna use ur own PAN

    then delete this accnt wen u get ur own PAN and make a new PP.

    PAN is not compulsory for paypal, you can also skip it by clicking at the PAYPAL LOGO.
