How to Update Your Aadhaar Address Online: Step-by-Step Guide
Keeping your Aadhaar information up to date can be important when your address changes or when an existing address contains an error.
The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) provides online information and services for Aadhaar holders.
Can You Update Your Address Online?
UIDAI provides an online address-update process. The exact services and requirements available to you can depend on the current UIDAI process and your account details.
What You Need Before Starting
- Access to the official UIDAI Aadhaar service.
- Your Aadhaar-related login or authentication details as required.
- A valid address document if the current process requires one.
- Access to your registered mobile number where required.
General Process
- Open the official UIDAI website.
- Go to the Aadhaar update service.
- Select the address update option when available.
- Enter the requested address information.
- Upload or provide the required supporting document if requested.
- Review all information carefully.
- Submit the update request.
- Save the Service Request Number (SRN).
How to Track the Request
UIDAI states that a Service Request Number is generated after successful submission of an online address update request. The SRN can be used to check the status of the request.
Use the Correct Address
Before submitting an update, carefully check spelling, house or flat number, street, locality, district, state and PIN code.
Use Only Official UIDAI Services
Be careful with websites or agents that ask for unnecessary personal information or payment. For Aadhaar services, start with the official UIDAI website.
