The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has revised the charges for updating Aadhaar details, making it important for citizens to be aware of the new fee structure before visiting Aadhaar enrollment or update centers.

This change affects those who want to update their demographic details (like name, address, date of birth, mobile number, email ID) or biometric information (fingerprints, iris, photograph).

💰 New Aadhaar Update Charges

As per the latest notification:

• Demographic Update (Name, Address, DOB, Mobile, Email, etc.): ₹50 per update

• Biometric Update (Photo, Fingerprint, Iris): ₹100 per update

• Download & Print of Aadhaar (Color Print): ₹30 per copy

(Note: Charges include applicable taxes.)

🔎 Where Can You Update Aadhaar?

You can update your Aadhaar details through:

1. Online (UIDAI Portal / mAadhaar App) – Limited to demographic updates such as address.

2. Aadhaar Enrollment/Update Centres – For biometric and demographic updates.

📝 Documents Required for Update

Depending on the type of update, you may need:

• Proof of Identity (POI) – PAN Card, Passport, Voter ID, Driving License, etc.

• Proof of Address (POA) – Utility bills, Bank Statement, Ration Card, etc.

• Date of Birth Proof – Birth Certificate, PAN, Passport, etc.

📌 Why the Fee Hike?

UIDAI has stated that the revised charges are aimed at covering operational costs and ensuring better, faster, and more secure Aadhaar update services at authorized centers.

✅ Key Takeaways for Aadhaar Holders

• Updating Aadhaar is still mandatory in many cases (banking, government schemes, mobile SIM verification).

• With revised fees, plan your updates carefully to avoid repeated visits.

• Always update Aadhaar only at authorized centers or online through the UIDAI portal.
