How to update the phone number on your Aadhaar card
UIDAI advises Aadhaar holders to update identification documents and proofs regularly to ensure the accuracy and security of the information on their Aadhaar card.
The UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India) regularly advises Aadhaar cardholders to update their Aadhaar details, including address, photo, phone number, and other details to ensure the accuracy and security of information on their Aadhaar card. Citizens can update their Aadhaar details online or offline at their convenience. However, UIDAI only allows online updating of demographic data. To update biometrics or other details, visit the nearest Aadhaar Enrollment Center.
Notably, in a recent announcement, UIDAI made document updating free of charge until June 14, 2023. Citizens can update their proof of identity and proof of address online. However, mobile phone number update cannot be done online and needs physical verification by visiting the Aadhaar enrollment centre. This is done so that no unauthorized person can misuse the update process and update your mobile phone number with a fake number.
So if you've changed your SIM card or need to update your phone number, you can do it by visiting a Permanent Enrollment Center. Find step by step guide to help you through the Aadhaar update process.
