When we go to a bank and ask for a bank account we are asked to produce so many documents. The major ones are the address proof and identity proof documents. Whatever details are mentioned on these documents are taken into the bank records. But if you have anything changed out of these two. Then the bank also allows you to update it in the records. And in this guide, I will tell you how you can update or change address in Bank of Maharashtra account.
The bank will change the address that has been mentioned in your bank account records. But for that, you will have to submit the proof document.
