Permanent Account Number (PAN) is a typical ten-digit alphanumeric code that acts, more than anything else, as your personal identity card issued by the Government of India. A typical PAN would read like ‘ABC123456D’. PAN is considered to be similar to the social security number issued by the US Government to all its citizens.
