A new TAN application, Form 49B, can be made by visiting the Income Tax department or creating an online application at the Income Tax official website.

Types of TAN Application

Applications for allotment and applications for change are the two categories of TAN applications.

Applications for change or correction of TAN have a processing fee of Rs. 63 + service tax. For this, details like 10-digit TAN number, address, nationality, and PAN details are necessary.

Guidelines For Filling Application Form 49B

The applicant must carefully complete Form 49B, which contains many sections, for the TAN application to be accepted.

Following are some considerations the applicant should make when filling out Form 49B:

• Form 49B must only be filled out in capital letters in English to make the entries readable.
• The tax deductor or collector must provide information about the assessing officer. You can get these facts from the Income Tax Office if they are unavailable.
• Every text field on the form should have one letter entered for easier reading and comprehension.
• The tax collector or deductor must additionally provide information about the region, area code, district, etc. Before filling out Form 49B, the Income Tax Office can be contacted to get more information.
• A gazetted officer, a notary, or magistrate must certify the signature if the form is signed with the left-hand thumbprint.
• The left thumb impression is only accepted from applicants for TAN. The acknowledgement form printed must be signed by applicants who fall under another “category of deductors.”
• Complete the fields on Form 49B. Any portions that are left empty or unfinished are not taken into account.
• The individual in charge of tax filing and submission must set down their title.
• The applicant must provide a valid Indian address.

The Income Tax Department checks the information after form 49B has been completed and submitted.
