Aadhaar card free update deadline: The UIDAI has announced that Aadhaar cardholders have the opportunity to update their information without any charges through the myAadhaar portal. This service will remain free until the specified deadline. Those who have changed their residence or moved to a different city must ensure their Aadhaar card records reflect these changes.
The authority recommends updating details once every decade to maintain accuracy. Current information in the database ensures efficient service delivery and precise Aadhaar-based verification.
What is the Aadhaar Card Free Update Deadline?
The free online update service through the myAadhaar portal will continue until December 14, 2024. Following this date, any modifications made at physical Aadhaar centres will require payment of a fee.
For document submission, residents can access the Bhuvan Aadhaar Portal. The portal offers two convenient ways to locate nearby centres: users can either use the ‘Centres Nearby’ option and input their location information, or they can simply enter their PIN code in the designated search field to find Aadhaar centres in their vicinity.
The mAadhaar app currently offers limited update capabilities, according to an ET report. As per UIDAI’s official statement: “The facility to update demographic details such as Name, DoB, mobile number are not available in the mAadhaar app. Only address update via document facility is currently available. However the demographics updates features may be included in future releases.”
