Aadhaar Update Rate List: If you update your address or other documents in your Aadhaar online (MyAadhaar portal), then this service is free till June 14, 2026. However, if you get the same update done at an Aadhaar Seva Kendra, then where earlier you had to pay Rs 50, now you will have to pay Rs 75.
Aadhaar Update Rate List: Updating information such as name, address, or photo on your Aadhaar card has now become more expensive. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has revised the charges associated with Aadhaar updates.
Now, any changes to your Aadhaar card will incur an additional fee of 15 to 25 rupees. The new rules came into effect on October 1, 2025, and will remain in effect until September 30, 2028. Following this, the UIDAI has also set new rates for the next phase, from October 1, 2028, to September 30, 2031.
Which services have become more expensive?
Services that previously cost ₹50 have now been increased to ₹75. These services include updating information such as name, address, mobile number, and date of birth. Updating fingerprints, iris, or photos, which previously cost ₹100, will now cost ₹125.
Similarly, services that cost ₹75 have now become ₹90. Services that cost ₹125 will become ₹150 in the second phase, from October 1, 2028, to September 30, 2031. However, there will be no fee for making a new Aadhaar card and it will remain free as before.
Relief for Children and Adolescents
UIDAI has also provided relief to children and adolescents. A one-time biometric update for children/adolescents aged five to seven and 15 to 17 will be free. Apart from this, the fee for biometric update has been waived for children between seven and 15 years of age till 30 September 2026.
This step has been taken to promote timely updates. However, if a person wishes to update their biometric information at a different age, they will be required to pay a fee.
₹700 charge for home service
UIDAI has also fixed the fee for home Aadhaar services. If a person wishes to update their Aadhaar at home, they will have to pay ₹700 (including GST).
If additional members of the same household wish to avail the service, a charge of ₹350 will be levied for each additional person. These fees will be separate from the normal fees for demographic and biometric updates.
Online update is cheaper, color print is more expensive.
