PAN Format Checker
Check whether a PAN (Permanent Account Number) matches the official 10-character format and decode its holder-type code.

This only checks the structural format of the PAN — it does not verify the final checksum letter or confirm the PAN is actually issued. To confirm a PAN is real and active, use the official verification tool on the Income Tax e-filing portal.
