Aadhaar Card Update: What You Can Change and How
Aadhaar details use different UIDAI update routes depending on what you need to change. This page separates the current web, Aadhaar App and centre-based options instead of treating every update as the same process.
Independent website: We do not process Aadhaar updates or collect supporting documents. Complete updates only through UIDAI services.
