FAQs on UDIN


 • What is Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN)?  The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, on noticing about the fake certifications by Non-CAs misrepresenting themselves as Chartered Accountants which misled the authorities and stakeholders, pioneered in conceptualizing a unique concept which is called "Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN) ".

• A form has been uploaded with valid UDIN. However, UDIN status indicates, ‘update UDIN’. What does this mean?
 As long as Taxpayer has not accepted the uploaded form, the CA would be able to modify the UDIN.

 A link ‘View/Update UDIN details’ will be available under My Account tab. User must click the link and shall be redirected to ‘View/Update UDIN details’ for further action.
