Purpose of this Document:
This document provides updated instructions for support agents assisting the merchant with the RE-KYC 2.0.
The primary changes focus on streamlining KYC requirements and ensuring compliance with updated RBI regulations. Below mentioned are the stages and the definitions.
Owner KYC (Identity Verification): Agents must now use one of the following two paths.
Option 1: Use the Available Document and proceed with the verification. (PAN or Aadhaar)
Option 2: Aadhaar e-OTP + PAN + Video KYC.
Note: Voter ID and Driver’s Licenses are no longer accepted.
Business KYC (Entity Verification)
Mandatory Requirement: A valid Business Proof document is now required for all Current Accounts.
Bank KYC (Account Validation): To ensure successful verification, the names must match exactly as follows:
Merchants cannot add or change Bank accounts within this journey.
Udyam Aadhaar Generation: As RBI now requires Business Proof for all merchants, we have introduced a solution for Savings Account holders:
If a merchant uses a Savings Account, we will generate an Udyam Aadhaar Certificate on their behalf to serve as their official Business Proof.
Rollback execute - Means, the merchant has pressed the Back button. Just inform them to proceed with the process; it is not an error.
