Documents Required for GST Registration
GST Registration is granted on the strength of the papers you file with it, so a complete set at the start is the difference between 3–7 working days, subject to verification by the gst officer and a query that sends the application back. Below is every document our team needs from you, what each one is for, and how to get it to us. You upload all of it in your Fastlegal dashboard — nothing is couriered, and nothing is payable while you gather it.

Document questions for gst registration
Can I get GST registration at my home address?
Yes, a residential address can be the principal place of business if you provide valid ownership or rent proof and a utility bill.
Why might the officer ask for clarification?
Officers commonly query unclear address proofs, mismatched names or missing authorisations. We reply within the time allowed, but the final approval is at the officer's discretion.
Got your documents together?
Hand gst registration to our team and upload them straight away. We confirm a fixed fee once we have seen what is involved — nothing is charged until you approve it.
