Over the next three months, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) will not charge citizens to update documents in their Aadhaar online.

The decision was reached as part of the Digital India initiative, and locals were invited to take advantage of the free document updating service on the myAadhaar platform. The free service will be offered for the next three months, from March 15 to June 14, but only on the myAadhaar portal. As earlier, it will cost Rs 50 to use the service at physical Aadhaar centres.

The UIDAI has been urging citizens to submit Proof of Identification and Proof of Address (PoI/PoA) papers to revalidate their demographic information, particularly if Aadhaar was issued more than ten years ago and was never updated. This will increase the success rate of authentication and contribute to better service delivery and increased convenience of life.

Residents have two options if they need to update their demographic information (Name, Date of Birth, Address, etc.): they may use the standard online update service or go to the local Aadhar centre. In these situations, standard fees will be charged.
