Director KYC (DIR-3 KYC)

Overview

Every person holding a Director Identification Number (DIN) must keep their KYC details with MCA current. From 31 March 2026, MCA changed the rules: instead of filing every year, a DIN holder files KYC once every three financial years, by 30 June, through a single web-based form (DIR-3 KYC Web), and must update any change in mobile number, email or address within 30 days.

If KYC isn't filed on time, MCA marks the DIN as deactivated. The person then can't act on filings as a director until KYC is completed with the fee the rules prescribe for late filing.

Our team checks when your next KYC is due, completes the filing with your OTPs or DSC, and handles reactivation of a deactivated DIN.

Who needs it

• Directors of companies and designated partners of LLPs who hold a DIN
• Anyone whose DIN shows as deactivated for non-filing of KYC
• DIN holders whose mobile number, email or address has changed

Documents required

What we usually ask for. Our team confirms the exact list for your case before anything is filed.

• DIN and PAN
• Aadhaar, passport (mandatory for foreign nationals) and address proof
• Personal mobile number and email for OTP verification
• Digital signature certificate, where the form requires it
