The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has once again extended the deadline for free Aadhaar updating by 3 months. Now you will be able to update your Aadhaar for free till June 14 and you will not have to pay any charge for it. After this, Aadhaar update will have to be paid for.
Earlier this deadline was until 14 December, but it was extended by 3 months to 14 March. According to the circular issued by UIDAI on September 6, 2023, this initiative has been started especially for those people who got Aadhaar card 10 years ago and have not updated it even once.
You can update yourself on the official website
To update Aadhaar, users can update their own details by visiting the official website of UIDAI, myAadhaar. In this regard, only demographic data can be updated online. If you are unable to update Aadhaar yourself, you can do this work by going to a nearby Aadhaar center, but here you will have to pay a fee of Rs 50 for updating each detail (demographic and biometric data).
To update Aadhaar online, your mobile number needs to be updated. Otherwise, Aadhaar will not be updated online. Mobile number can be updated at Aadhaar center only. After updating the details, you will also get a service request number. Through this you can check when the details will be updated in your Aadhaar.
