Aadhaar New Rule: A major relief has come for Aadhaar card holders. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has announced several new rules to make the Aadhaar update process faster, easier, and completely digital.
These new rules will come into effect from November 1, 2025. Under this, people will now be able to update information such as their name, address, date of birth, and mobile number online from the comfort of their homes. For this, they will no longer need to stand in long queues at Aadhaar service centers.
UIDAI says that the purpose of these changes is to make Aadhaar services more secure, user-friendly, and time-saving.
What will change?
1. Online Aadhaar Update Facility
Until now, people had to visit an Aadhaar Seva Kendra for any corrections or changes. However, with the new system, the entire process can be completed online by visiting the UIDAI portal. Users’ submitted information will be digitally verified using government documents such as their PAN card, passport, driving license, or ration card. This will make the process both faster and more reliable.
2. New Aadhaar-PAN Linking Deadline
According to UIDAI’s new guidelines, Aadhaar-PAN linking has been made mandatory for all PAN holders. The deadline for this is December 31, 2025. If this deadline is missed, the PAN card will be deactivated from January 1, 2026. This will impact tax and other financial transactions. Additionally, those who obtain a new PAN card will now be required to complete Aadhaar-based verification.
3. Digital KYC is now completely paperless
UIDAI has also digitized the KYC process for banks and financial institutions. Customers will now be able to complete their KYC through three methods: Aadhaar OTP-based verification, video KYC, and in-person verification (optional). This new system will complete the account opening and identity verification process in just a few minutes.
4. Aadhaar update fees also changed
- UIDAI has also announced a new fee structure for Aadhaar services.
- The fee for updating name, address, or mobile number will now be ₹75.
- The fee for biometric updates (fingerprint, iris, or photo) has been increased to ₹125.
- Biometric updates are completely free for children (5–7 years and 15–17 years).
- Online document updates are also free until June 14, 2026.
- After June 14, 2026, the update fee will remain ₹75.
- The fee for Aadhaar reprints will remain ₹40.
- The fee for home enrollment services will be ₹700 (for the first person) and ₹350 (for the second person at the same address).
UIDAI’s Message
UIDAI officials stated that this digital-first approach will give citizens the freedom to manage their Aadhaar-related information and make services more transparent. However, they warned that the Aadhaar-PAN linking deadline is crucial. Failure to meet it could lead to serious difficulties in financial transactions and tax-related matters.
