Changing a Director Identification Number (DIN) typically refers to updating the personal details associated with the DIN. The process is straightforward but requires meticulous attention to detail to ensure compliance with legal requirements.
First, the director must log into the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) portal and access the DIR-3 KYC form. This form is used to update personal details such as name, address, or contact information. The director must fill in the required details, attach necessary documents like updated proof of identity and address, and digitally sign the form using their Digital Signature Certificate (DSC).
Once the form is completed, it must be submitted online. The MCA will then process the request, and if all details are correct, the changes will be updated in the MCA database. It’s crucial to complete this process annually or whenever there are changes to avoid deactivation of the DIN and to ensure the director’s information is current and accurate. Properly maintaining DIN details helps ensure smooth regulatory compliance and corporate governance.
