Que documentos são necessários para comprar um novo cartão SIM?

Todos os prestadores de serviços de telecomunicações precisam de completar KYC (Know Your Customer) de acordo com as normas DOT antes de prestarem os seus serviços a um novo cliente.

O que é KYC : Know Your Customer significa que os prestadores de serviços precisam de saber quem é você e onde fica (isso é um mínimo muito básico). Dependendo do serviço solicitado, precisa de fornecer mais documentos de suporte para completar o KYC.

Placa SIM pré-paga : Precisa de completar o KYC básico e recarregar o seu número de acordo com os seus planos pré-pagos.

Placa SIM pós-paga : Precisa de completar o KYC básico e pagar o depósito mínimo de acordo com os seus planos pós-pagos.

CUG SIM Card : Juntamente com o KYC básico, também precisa de apresentar o seu documento de trabalho (cartão de identificação da empresa, carta emitida pela Empresa HR)

Outros Serviços : Will vary the document requirements based on which service you need.

Now KYC has basic and extended lists:

Basic KYC : Identity and Address

Extended : Financial Status and Work Status

Following documents are generally accepted as KYC documents:

Identity :

1. PAN Card
2. Aadhar Card
3. Voter ID Card
4. Driving License
5. Passport
6. Centrally recognized Company ID Card (PSUs)
7. Photo Passbook of Nationalized Bank
8. Letter from eminent and recognized person with your photo and address (such as MP of your constituency)
9. MNREGA Card
10. NAABARD Card
11. etc…

Address :

1. Aadhar Card
2. Voter ID Card
3. Driving License
4. Passport
5. Photo Passbook of Nationalized Bank
6. Letter from eminent and recognized person with your photo and address (such as MP of your constituency)
7. Ration Card
8. Electricity Bill
9. MTNL/BSNL Telephone Bill
10. IOCL/HPCL/BPCL Gas Connection SV/STV
11. etc…

Extended KYC:

1. Bank Statement
2. HR Letter
3. etc…

Apart from that, if you are a foreign national then you must have to submit copies of Passport and Visa

Overall, if you have anyone of Voter ID Card, Passport, Driving License or Aadhar having local address where you are seeking to buy new SIM Card, you are fine with just one document. If you don’t have local address then you can submit supporting documents.

Ideally all telecom providers should render you services if you have KYC based on anywhere in India, however at times they insist on having atleast one document with local address.

Get back in case you require any more information.
