Aadhaar Card Update: Step-by-step guide to change your address for free online

How to change address in Aadhaar card?: The deadline for free online Aadhaar updates has been extended by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) to June 14, 2025, giving Indian citizens the chance to amend their demographic information without paying any fees. With the use of this extension, people can update and change their records by using the myAadhaar portal to change details like their address or identification documents.?

Any updates after this date will cost Rs 50 per request and necessitate a visit to an Aadhaar Enrollment Center. To prevent any service delays or rejection of government benefits owing to obsolete information, UIDAI encourages all Aadhaar holders—especially those who received their Aadhaar more than 10 years ago and haven't updated their details since—to take advantage of this free update opportunity.?

Deadline for free Aadhaar update online

Indian citizens now have until June 14, 2025, to make free online changes to their Aadhaar information. The previous deadline of December 14, 2024, has been further extended by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), giving Aadhaar cardholders an extra six months to update demographic data on the myAadhaar portal, including Proof of Identity (PoI) and Proof of Address (PoA).

Any changes made to offline Aadhaar enrolment facilities starting on June 15, 2025, would incur a price of Rs 50 per request, which is the same as the current offline fee.

AUIDAI has urged Aadhaar holders to take advantage of this free chance, particularly those who obtained their Aadhaar more than ten years ago and haven't updated it. The accuracy of your Aadhaar record is guaranteed by updating your data, which also lessens the chance of service interruptions or the denial of government benefits due to inaccurate information.?
