KVB Passbook: How to Get and Update It
Karur Vysya Bank provides a passbook to all savings and current account holders at the time of account opening. You can get it updated at any KVB branch or through self-service passbook kiosks available at select branches.
How to Get a KVB Passbook
A passbook is issued free of cost when you open a new account at KVB. If you have not received one or need a duplicate, visit your home branch with your account details and request a new passbook at the customer service counter.
How to Update Your KVB Passbook
At a KVB Branch
- Visit any KVB branch during working hours
- Go to the passbook update counter or passbook printer
- Insert your passbook into the printer
- All pending transactions since the last update will be printed
At a KVB Passbook Kiosk
Several KVB branches have self-service passbook kiosks in the lobby. These kiosks operate during extended hours and allow you to update your passbook without waiting in a queue. Simply insert the passbook and the machine prints all unrecorded entries.
KVB Passbook vs Account Statement
- Passbook: Physical record, updated at branch/kiosk, free of charge
- Account statement: Available digitally via KVB DLite app, net banking, or email; useful for longer date ranges
For official purposes like loan applications or income tax filing, a digitally generated account statement from KVB net banking is often accepted alongside a passbook.
Lost or Damaged KVB Passbook
If your passbook is lost or damaged, visit your KVB branch with your account number and valid ID proof. A duplicate passbook is issued after a nominal charge and completion of a written request form. Charges may vary by branch.
