Applicants for GST registration in Tamil Nadu and Himachal Pradesh are now required to undergo biometric-based Aadhaar authentication and document verification.
The functionality for biometric-based Aadhaar authentication and document verification was rolled out in Tamil Nadu and Himachal Pradesh on 28th January 2025.
After submission, applicants will receive an email with either a link for OTP-based Aadhaar authentication or a link to book an appointment at a GST Suvidha Kendra (GSK) for biometric authentication and document verification.
You need to bring a copy of the appointment confirmation email, details of your jurisdiction, your Aadhaar Card and PAN Card (originals), and the original documents uploaded with your application.
ARNs will be generated only after the biometric-based Aadhaar authentication and document verification processes are successfully completed at the GSK.
