IEC documentation requirements: only PAN copy, bank certificate or pre printed cancelled cheque and applicant photograph required for applications. Applicants for IEC must upload only a copy of the business PAN, either a cancelled cheque with the entity's pre printed name or a prescribed Bank Certificate, and the signatory applicant's photograph using the notified application format and checklist. Regional Authorities must accept manual applications only in the revised format, issue IECs per the checklist, process pending applications under old or new norms as appropriate, and allow applicants to furnish additional documents to meet the simplified requirements.
