Vahan portal dsc registration process

Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) registration on the Vahan portal is primarily for authorized motor vehicle dealers, transport authorities, and officials. To register, users must first install their DSC token driver and the Vahan DSC Signer utility on their PC, then map their certificate through the official portal.

DSC Registration and Setup Process

Step 1: System and Driver Setup

Before logging into the portal, ensure your system is properly configured.

1. Token Driver: Insert your DSC USB token into your computer and install the corresponding USB driver.
2. Java & Signer Utility: Install the latest version of Java and download the Vahan DSC Signer Service from the official portal’s System Requirement For Vahan Parivahan knowledge base.
3. Run Signer: Ensure the signer service is running in the background of your system.

Step 2: Accessing the Portal

1. Navigate to the Parivahan Vahan Service.
2. Click “Register” and fill in your details (Full name, Email ID, Mobile No., State) to create your One-Time User ID.
3. Verify your account via the activation link and OTP sent to your registered email, then create a secure password.

Step 3: Registering and Mapping the DSC

1. Log in to the Parivahan Vahan Service portal using your credentials.
2. Navigate to the “Dealer Point Registration” or “User Profile” section depending on your role.
3. Select the option to “Register DSC”.
4. Allow the portal to detect the active DSC Signer.
5. Select your DSC Provider, Certificate Name, and enter your cryptographic USB Token Pin/Password.
6. Click “Sign” or “Register” to map the certificate to your profile.

Step 4: RTO Approval

Once the digital signature is mapped online, the application is forwarded to your respective RTO. An authorized RTO official will verify your dealer or user credentials and approve the DSC in the backend, after which you can digitally sign applications on the portal.
