Do you know?
Indian pensioners living abroad must submit a yearly life certificate to continue receiving their pensions. To simplify this the government offers several convenient remote options.
Jeevan Pramaan
Use the Jeevan Pramaan portal to digitally submit life certificates from abroad. This secure, government-endorsed platform simplifies the submission process.
Video-based KYC
Some banks allow video-based Know Your Customer (KYC) processes. Pensioners can verify their identity via video calls, reducing the need for in-person verification.
Local Indian Embassy
Visit the nearest Indian Embassy or High Commission abroad. They offer certificate attestation services, allowing pensioners to complete formalities while overseas.
Aadhaar-based Authentication
If you have an Aadhaar number, biometric authentication enables life certificate submission online. This eliminates the need for physical visits.
Designated Bank Branch
Submit the life certificate at a designated bank branch abroad. Some Indian banks have branches in foreign countries specifically for pension services.
Mobile-based Life Certificate
Use mobile apps like the UMANG app for convenient, remote submission. These apps enable pensioners to submit certificates securely from any location.
