Aadhaar Card Update for Free: The deadline for free updates via the myAadhaar portal is extended to March 14, 2024, as per UIDAI's recent memorandum. Note that while online updates are free, physical Aadhaar centers charge Rs 25 for document updates.

Why Update Aadhaar Data?

Updating Aadhaar details every 10 years is crucial to prevent scams. UIDAI emphasizes accuracy in demographic information. Online updates are available for name, address, date of birth, gender, phone number, and email. Physical Aadhaar centers handle photo and biometric updates.

2. Log in using Aadhaar number or Enrolment ID. Click 'Name/Gender/Date of Birth & Address Update.'

3. Click 'Update Aadhaar Online.'

4. Choose 'Address' or name or gender, then click 'Proceed to Update Aadhaar.'

6. No payment currently, but from March 14, 2024, a Rs 25 fee will apply for online updates.

7. After submission, note the 'Service Request Number (SRN)' on the new webpage for future reference.
