Check GST Registration Status
What is ARN?
ARN stands for “Application Reference Number.”An ARN is a unique reference number assigned to each GST registration application submitted by a taxpayer or business entity.
When someone applies for GST registration, they fill out an application form with their business details and other relevant information. Once they submit this application on the GST portal, it goes through a verification and approval process by the GST authorities. During this process, the system generates an Application Reference Number (ARN) to track and identify their registration application.
