Keeping your Aadhaar details current matters — a mismatched address or mobile number can block KYC, subsidies and bank services. Here is how to update Aadhaar and what it costs.
What you can update
- Demographic: name, date of birth, gender, address, mobile, email.
- Biometric: fingerprints, iris, photo.
- Documents: refreshing proof of identity/address.
Online vs centre
Online (myAadhaar portal): you can update your address and documents online if your mobile is linked (OTP needed). Biometric updates, mobile-number changes and most name/DOB changes must be done in person at an Aadhaar Seva Kendra/enrolment centre.
Charges (2026)
| Service | Fee |
|---|---|
| Demographic update (name, address, DOB, etc.) | ₹75 |
| Biometric update | ₹125 |
| New enrolment | Free |
UIDAI periodically offers free online document-update windows — check the myAadhaar portal for any current free-update period before paying.
How to update online
- Log in to the myAadhaar portal with your Aadhaar + OTP.
- Choose the field (e.g., address), enter new details and upload valid proof.
- Submit; track with the Update Request Number (URN).
