How to Change Address in PNB Account?

If you have changed the place where you live. Then you have an option to update your new address in your bank account. This is highly recommended to be done once you have the new address proof document with you. In this guide, I will tell you how you can change address in PNB Account.

I did not find any resource online that states you can change the address online using internet banking or mobile banking. So I have explained an offline method. This method requires the account holder to submit a written request to the bank.

But before I tell you the steps you need to follow. I would like to tell you about the basic requirement to change the address in the bank account. Here we first need to understand that the address is a very important part of the KYC detail of any account. So the banks do not change it on the basis of just an application submitted by the account holder. Along with the application. The account holder also has to submit the proper address proof document that certifies the new address. Without a proper proof document, the bank will not process the request.
