The Aadhaar card is a way to prove who you are and helps people participate in government programmes and get other benefits.
People can also update their Aadhaar cards by setting up an appointment online. Users of Aadhaar can change their name, date of birth, gender, and address online. Citizens still have to go to the Aadhaar enrollment centre to update their biometrics and mobile number.
Here are some things you can do at the nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra after making an appointment.
- Fresh Aadhaar enrolment
- Mobile number update
- Gender update
- Date of Birth update
- Address update
- Name update
- Email ID update
- Biometric (Fingerprints + Iris + Photograph) update
