How to Verify Google Adsense Account in Pakistan 2025 | Adsense Identity Verification in India
Verifying your Google AdSense account in Pakistan and India involves two main steps: Identity Verification and Address (PIN) Verification. Both are crucial for receiving payments. The process and required documents are largely similar for both countries.
Here's a breakdown for 2025:
Google AdSense Identity Verification
When it's required:
When your AdSense earnings reach the verification threshold (which is $10 USD equivalent in both Pakistan and India).
This is typically done before address verification.
Documents required (for individual accounts):
You'll need a government-issued photo ID from the same country as your AdSense account's payments profile. This ensures your name on the ID matches the payee name in your AdSense account.
Acceptable documents generally include:
Passport
Driver's License
National Identity Card (e.g., CNIC in Pakistan, Aadhaar Card in India - though PAN card is generally not accepted for address proof as it doesn't contain an address)
Residence Permit
Important points for document submission:
The document must be valid and not expired.
The image should be clear, well-lit, in color, and not a photocopy.
The full name on the document must exactly match the full name in your AdSense account.
The document must be issued from the same country as your AdSense payments account.
How to complete Identity Verification:
Sign in to your AdSense account.
On the left menu, click Payments, then Verification check.
You should see a prompt or a pink/red banner indicating that identity verification "needs attention."
Follow the instructions to upload the required government-issued ID.
Google AdSense Address (PIN) Verification
When it's required:
After you successfully complete identity verification and your earnings reach the verification threshold.
Google will send a unique 6-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) to your physical mailing address.
The PIN Mailer:
The PIN is sent via international standard mail. There's no tracking number provided.
It typically takes around 3 weeks for the PIN to arrive.
Crucially, ensure your payment address in AdSense is accurate and can receive standard mail. If your ID does not provide mailing address information, or if your postal address is different from your ID, you might be asked to provide proof of address through a bank statement, telephone bill, or rent receipt.
How to complete Address (PIN) Verification:
Sign in to your AdSense account.
Click Payments, then Verification check.
Enter the 6-digit PIN exactly as it appears in the mailer.
Click Submit.
What if you don't receive the PIN?
You have 4 months from the date your PIN is generated to complete address verification.
If you don't receive the PIN in 3 weeks, you can request a replacement PIN from your AdSense account (usually an option appears after 2 weeks).
You are generally allowed up to 3 attempts to receive the PIN via mail.
If you fail to receive the PIN after multiple attempts (e.g., 3 times), Google may provide an option to verify your address by uploading a government-approved identification card that includes your address.
General Tips for Verification:
Accuracy is key: Double-check that all information (name, address) in your AdSense account precisely matches your official documents.
Patience: The process, especially waiting for the PIN by mail, can take some time.
Monitor your AdSense account: Keep an eye on the "Payments" and "Verification check" sections for prompts and updates.
Review AdSense policies: Ensure your website/content complies with AdSense Program policies to avoid any issues.
Contact Support (if needed): If you encounter persistent problems, you can use the AdSense ID Verification Troubleshooter or, if you're a YouTube Partner, contact YouTube Creator Support.
By following these steps and ensuring your information is accurate and consistent, you should be able to successfully verify your Google AdSense account in Pakistan or India in 2025.
