Yes, a director can file their own DIR-3 KYC Web by registering on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) V3 portal as a Registered User or Business User.
Key Points for Filing:
-
Purpose of "Web" Version: The DIR-3 KYC Web service is specifically designed for directors who have already filed their initial e-Form DIR-3 KYC in a previous year and have no changes to their personal details (such as mobile number, email address, or residential address).
-
Requirement: To use this service, you must be a registered user on the MCA V3 portal.
-
No Professional Certification Needed: Unlike the full e-Form DIR-3 KYC (which requires certification by a practicing professional like a CA, CS, or CMA), the DIR-3 KYC Web is an online, OTP-based verification process that does not require professional attestation or document attachments, provided your details remain unchanged.
-
If Changes Are Needed: If you need to update your mobile number, email, or other personal information, you must file the full e-Form DIR-3 KYC instead, which requires digital signature (DSC) and professional certification.
Steps to File (Web):
-
Login: Log in to your account on the official MCA V3 portal.
-
Navigate: Go to MCA Services > Company e-Filing > DIN Related Filings > Form DIR-3 KYC Web.
-
Verify: Enter your Director Identification Number (DIN).
-
OTP Verification: The system will prompt you to verify your mobile number and email ID using OTPs. These must be unique and personal to you.
-
Confirm Details: Review the pre-filled personal information.
-
Submit: Once verified and submitted, an SRN (Service Request Number) will be generated, which serves as your acknowledgment of the filing.
Summary: Yes, you can file your own DIR-3 KYC Web by registering as a user on the MCA portal. This is a simplified, OTP-based service for directors with no changes to their existing records; if any details need updating, you must use the full DIR-3 KYC e-Form instead.
