With UIDAI’s new Aadhaar app, you can now update your Aadhaar address from the comfort of your home using your mobile phone. There’s no need to visit an Aadhaar center. Face authentication and online document uploads make the process secure and easy. This reduces time, effort, and paperwork.
Updating your home address on your Aadhaar card is now easier than ever. With UIDAI’s new Aadhaar app, this task can be done directly from your mobile phone. Previously, people had to travel to Aadhaar enrolment centres, stand in long queues, and submit physical documents. Now, this entire process is done online, saving both time and effort.
Digital Update
The new Aadhaar app allows users to change their address from the comfort of their homes. This feature is especially beneficial for working individuals, the elderly, and those living in remote areas. All that’s required is a mobile number linked to Aadhaar and a good internet connection.
How to update your address in Aadhaar? Learn the step-by-step process
- This process is designed to be very simple and user-friendly.
- First, download the official Aadhaar app from your mobile’s app store.
- Once the app is installed, log in using your Aadhaar number and the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar.
- For security, you may need to set up an MPIN or use biometric or face authentication.
- After logging in, go to the “Services” section and select the “Address Update” option.
- Here, you will be asked how you want to update your address.
- You can use your own valid address proof or the Aadhaar details of a family member living at the same address.
- If you use your own documents, upload a clear photo or scan of a valid address proof, such as an electricity bill or bank statement.
- Then, carefully fill in your new address and double-check the details before submitting.
- Finally, face authentication is required to confirm your identity.
- Then, a small fee of approximately ₹75 is paid and the request is submitted. UIDAI verifies the details, and the address is usually updated within a few days to two weeks.
Why is this update necessary?
This new feature makes Aadhaar-related services easier. People no longer need to visit a central account, reducing paperwork. Face authentication increases security and reduces the risk of fraud.
For those who frequently relocate due to employment or studies, keeping their Aadhaar information updated has become much easier. This also reduces problems with government services, banking, and other important tasks.
A Step Towards Digital Convenience
With the new Aadhaar app, UIDAI is taking another strong step towards digital governance. Now, even simple tasks like changing your address can be done anytime, anywhere, making Aadhaar management easier for millions of people across the country.
