DIR-3 KYC Filing

Reconcile a director's DIN profile and contact records before preparing the applicable KYC filing.

What this service covers

Reconcile a director's DIN profile and contact records before preparing the applicable KYC filing. BIATConsultant helps organise the assessment, documentation and coordination needed for a clearly defined engagement. The first output is a scoped plan that identifies the applicant, relevant activity, evidence gaps and the next decision.

Important scope distinction

DIR-3 KYC and the web-based KYC route have different use conditions. A changed profile or deactivated DIN needs a separate review.

Use this distinction to define the outcome you need before choosing an application or advisory package. Bring the existing registration, correspondence or transaction history to the first review so the proposed route can be checked against the actual records.

Can a company email be used without reviewing the director's contact details?

Check the applicable personal contact and verification requirements before filing. The director should be able to complete the required verification and confirm the information. An old profile copied from a previous filing can conceal an outdated address or contact number.

Starting documents and information

To scope DIR-3 kyc filing, prepare the following information. Use current records and clearly identify any unavailable documents, disputed facts or planned changes.

  • DIN details: provide the current version and identify the responsible owner.
  • Identity proof: provide the current version and identify the responsible owner.
  • Address proof: provide the current version and identify the responsible owner.
  • Personal email and mobile: provide the current version and identify the responsible owner.

This list supports the initial review. It is not a promise that the same attachments apply to every applicant. BIAT can prepare a case-specific checklist after the activity, jurisdiction and current application instructions are assessed.

Reconcile the entity record

First compare the company or LLP master data with the registers, prior returns and proposed effective date. Identify linked filings, signatures and unresolved defaults before choosing the form.

Prepare the corporate action

Record the necessary decisions and prepare draft resolutions, declarations or agreements for review by the authorised signatories. Supporting amounts and dates should reconcile with the underlying records.

Complete filing and record updates

After authorised submission, retain the acknowledgement and monitor queries. Update registers, bank mandates and other affected records where the transaction requires them.

Deliverables to agree with BIAT

  • An assessment of the proposed scope and the records that support it.
  • A tailored document checklist with gaps and responsibilities.
  • Draft documents or an evidence pack within the agreed engagement.
  • Coordination of applicable submissions, responses or independent assessment.
  • A handover identifying acknowledgements, outstanding actions and continuing obligations.

Professional certification, legal representation, testing, local jurisdiction services and ongoing returns should be identified separately where needed. The proposal should state who performs each part of the work and which external decisions remain outside the consultancy scope.

Fees, timing and practical planning

The cost of DIR-3 kyc filing depends on the specific workstream, completeness of the DIN details and the complexity of the proposed activity. A useful quotation separates BIAT professional fees from official charges, testing, local professional costs and other disbursements.

Agree a preparation schedule once the required information is available. Authority review, queries, inspection and third-party decisions can affect elapsed time. Prior defaults, inconsistent ownership records or a change in scope may require additional work before submission.

Reference and related services

Use the official resource to check the current framework. Final applicability, forms and conditions should be reviewed for your specific case when the engagement is scoped.
