2.Non-Core Fields (Instant Auto-Approval)
Processing Timeline: Changes take effect immediately upon submission and do not require officer intervention.
Included Fields: Updating business website URLs, adding non-primary authorized signatories, or editing bank account details.
Action Required: Requires real-time OTP validation via email or mobile number using an Electronic Verification Code (EVC) or Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)
