What is an e-PAN Card?
An e-PAN is a digitally signed, paperless version of the physical PAN card issued by the Income Tax Department of India. It carries the same legal validity as a physical PAN card and can be downloaded for free from the NSDL or UTI portals using your PAN number, Aadhaar, and date of birth. The e-PAN PDF can be cropped and printed using this tool to create an identical, print-quality copy for everyday use.
When Do You Need a Printed PAN Card?
- Opening a bank account or completing in-person KYC verification
- Filing income tax returns at a Seva Kendra or CA office
- Submitting a loan application requiring physical identity documents
- Property registration, vehicle registration, and other government services
- As a backup in case the original physical PAN card is lost or damaged
PAN Card Printing: Paper vs PVC
You can get your PAN card printed in two formats:
- A4 Paper with Lamination: Print the A4 layout and cut along the card outline. Laminate for a durable, wallet-ready ID. Cost: ₹10–₹30 at a local print shop.
- PVC Card Printing: Hard plastic card identical to a debit card. Share the individual card images with a PVC card printing shop. Cost: ₹40–₹100 depending on location.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about cropping and printing your PAN card.
How do I crop my PAN card PDF for printing?
Upload your e-PAN PDF from the NSDL or UTI portal. The tool automatically identifies the PAN card region on the page, crops it to the exact 85.6 × 54mm standard, and creates a multi-card A4 print layout at 300 DPI — all processed securely in your browser.
What is the correct PAN card size for printing?
PAN cards follow the CR80 international standard: 85.6mm × 54mm (width × height), the same dimensions as a standard bank card. This tool automatically outputs at these precise dimensions. Always print at 300 DPI for a sharp, professional result suitable for lamination or PVC card production.
What is the password for my e-PAN card PDF?
For e-PAN PDFs issued by NSDL or UTI, the password is typically your date of birth in DDMMYYYY format (for example, if you were born on 15 August 1995, the password is 15081995). Some older issuances may use the first five characters of your name combined with your birth year. The password is entered only in your browser and never transmitted to servers.
Is my PAN number safe when using this tool?
Completely. This tool uses client-side JavaScript processing, which means your PAN card PDF is read and processed locally on your device. No file, no PAN number, and no personal information is ever transmitted to any server. The PDF data is cleared from your browser's memory as soon as you close the tab or navigate away.
Can I use this to print a duplicate PAN card?
Yes. If you have lost your original PAN card, you can download a fresh e-PAN from the NSDL website (tin.tin.nsdl.com) or the UTI portal using your PAN and Aadhaar details. Once downloaded, upload the PDF here to get a print-ready layout. A printed and laminated e-PAN carries the same legal validity as the original physical card.
Is the PAN card crop tool free to use?
Yes, this tool is completely free to use with no registration, no usage limits, and no watermarks on downloaded files. It is supported by non-intrusive Google AdSense advertisements, which allow us to provide the service at no cost to users.
