Yes. You may not even be having TAN. So apply for that.

You also have the choice not to apply for TAN and still pay the TDS.

In the above mentioned case TDS is required to be deducted even if Tax audit was not required in the preceding year. In this case whether or not services are used in business/professsion. Hence, it is advised to deduct TDS us/ 195 for payments to Non-resident. However, if the person has permanent establishment in India then you can also take the shelter of it.
