How to Update Aadhaar Card Details Online in 2023?

Your Aadhaar Card holds vital personal information like your name, address, contact number, gender, and date of birth. To update these details, visit an Aadhaar Enrollment Center or access the UIDAI official website.

The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has revised Aadhaar registration and update rules, with new forms for residents and Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) interested in enrolling or updating their information. Aal holders can now update their data within ten years from the issuance date either online via the UIDAI portal/app or at an enrollment center. This new policy, effective January 16, 2023, enhances the online updating experience, making Aadhaar enrollments and updates more accessible. Importantly, Proof of Identity (PoI) and Proof of Address (PoA) documents can be uploaded on the UIDAI portal free of charge until June 14, 2024.
