If your Aadhaar card information has not been updated in the past decade, now is the perfect opportunity to update it at no cost. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) is allowing residents to update their Aadhaar details online for free until June 14, 2026.
Updating your Aadhaar ensures that your identity and address information remain current, which is essential for smooth authentication and uninterrupted access to various government and private services. This is especially important for those whose Aadhaar cards were issued 10 years or more ago and have not been updated since.
What Information Can Be Updated?
You can use this free service to update the following:
- Proof of identity
- Proof of address
Keeping these details up-to-date helps prevent issues during verification processes and ensures continued access to essential services.
Step-by-Step Guide to Update Aadhaar Online for Free

- Authenticate your login with the OTP received on your registered mobile number.
