If you've received a KYC update message from your bank, there's no need to worry. Yes, it's a routine process designed to ensure uninterrupted banking services. KYC, or Know Your Customer, is a way for banks to verify a customer's identity. It needs to be renewed periodically. Let's explore this in detail...

Only the address has changed? The update will be done in minutes.

However, if all your other details remain the same and only the address has changed, you don't need to provide any extensive documentation. You can update your address with the bank simply by submitting a self-declaration. This requires neither standing in long lines at the branch nor completing any cumbersome procedures.

How to do KYC from home?

If there haven't been any major changes to your information, you can update your KYC very easily.

Aadhaar OTP-based e-KYC: You can easily complete this task online from the comfort of your home.
Video KYC: For this, a bank official will verify your identity over a video call.
Submit OVD at the bank branch: If you wish, you can also submit a copy of any valid document to the branch for KYC.

Keep these things in mind:
Do not share your information through any unknown link or call to complete the KYC process. Always complete KYC through the bank's official channels. The Reserve Bank of India is also continuously raising awareness among customers about safe banking.

Through campaigns like "RBI Kahta Hai," people are being told that correct information and awareness are the best way to avoid fraud. Keeping KYC updated is not just a formality, but a crucial part of safe banking.
