How Can I Check My e-PAN Status?

I recently helped my father apply for an e-PAN. His application stayed under processing for nearly a week, and then he received both the status update and the e-PAN email on the same day.

From what I've seen, it's common for applicants to receive the electronic PAN before the physical card, if a physical card has also been requested.

Requirements and processing times can change, so if the delay becomes much longer than expected, you may want to verify the status through the official PAN service provider.

Mine took a little longer because there was a mismatch between my application details and Aadhaar. About a week after applying, I received an email asking me to verify some information.

Once I completed that step, my e-PAN status started moving again, and I received the e-PAN shortly afterward.

I'd recommend checking your registered email regularly and making sure the acknowledgment number you're using is correct. Every application is different, so timelines can vary.

I applied for an e-PAN in May 2026, and my experience was pretty similar. The status remained "Under Process" for about four days before it changed to "PAN Allotted." I received the e-PAN in my registered email a few hours after the status updated.

One thing I noticed is that the portal doesn't always refresh immediately. I checked several times a day, but there was no change until everything updated at once.

If you haven't received any request for additional information, I'd give it a few more days. Based on my experience, the process was fairly smooth once verification was completed.

If you have the order number but are unable to find the status, try checking the confirmation email you received when submitting the application. It usually mentions the portal where the application was filed and provides tracking instructions. Processing times can vary depending on the type of PAN application.
