Why would a visa officer want my PAN card?

Usually because your financial evidence — Form 16, tax returns, a CA net-worth certificate — references the PAN. Translating the card lets the officer match the tax documents to you without inference.

Do you translate my income-tax return as well?

Yes. ITR-V acknowledgements, Form 16 and computation sheets are translated as separate pages and quoted as a bundle.

Is the father's name field a surname?

No, and that mismatch causes real problems on Australian forms. We label it as the father's name so it is not read as a family name.

How much does it cost?

$59 per page; a PAN card is one page.

Is my financial information kept private?

Yes — encrypted in transit and at rest, handled under the Privacy Act 1988, and visible only to the assigned NAATI translator.

Where a PAN card translation is used

The PAN is the identifier that ties your Indian income-tax records together. Where you are evidencing income, assets or business ownership for an Australian visa or financial application, the PAN links your tax documents to you, and it must be readable in certified English.

Links Form 16, income-tax returns and CA certificates to a single taxpayer
Requested by Australian banks and accountants dealing with Indian income or assets

NAATI Certification

What is a NAATI Certified Translation?

PAN cards carry a father's-name field that Australian forms have no equivalent for, and it is a common source of confusion when it is mistaken for a surname. Our translation labels each field explicitly so an Australian officer or accountant reads the document the way the Income Tax Department intended.

Commonly required for Department of Home Affairs applications
Used for university, government and employment submissions
Includes the translator's certification statement and details
