Update Aadhaar Online: Do It for Free Before June 18 – Here’s How to Avoid Paying ₹50 Later

UIDAI is offering free Update Aadhaar online until June 18, 2025. Here’s how to update your Aadhaar card and avoid the ₹50 charge that will apply later.

Free Aadhaar Update Deadline Nears Act Before June 18: The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has made it free to update your Aadhaar card details online, but only until June 18, 2025. After this date, updating key documents like proof of identity or address will cost ₹50 per update.

If your Aadhaar card hasn’t been updated in the last 10 years, UIDAI recommends refreshing your records to maintain accuracy and avoid service disruptions.

What Can Be Updated for Free?

Through the official UIDAI portal, you can currently update the following documents free of cost:

  • Proof of Identity (PoI)
  • Proof of Address (PoA)

Note: This free service is only available online via the UIDAI self-service portal — not at physical Aadhaar centers, where the ₹50 fee still applies.

Step-by-Step: How to Update Aadhaar Online for Free

  1. Visit the official UIDAI website: https://myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in
  2. Click on “Login” with your Aadhaar number and OTP
  3. Select “Document Update” under Services
  4. Upload a scanned copy of your updated PoI or PoA document
  5. Submit and note your URN (Update Request Number) for tracking

Updates usually reflect within 3–5 business days if all documents are valid.

Who Should Update Their Aadhaar?

UIDAI advises the following people to update:

  • Anyone who received Aadhaar before 2015 and hasn’t updated since
  • Individuals who have moved to a new address
  • Citizens who have changed their name or mobile number (these require biometric updates at centers)
  • People facing issues with government schemes, bank verifications, or KYC

Avoid the ₹50 Fee – Update Now

Starting June 15, 2025, all Aadhaar document updates done online will incur a ₹50 charge per update. This applies to even minor corrections in your name or address.

So, if you’re eligible for a free update now, act before the deadline to avoid unnecessary fees.

Don’t Miss the Free Aadhaar Update Window

The Aadhaar free update deadline is a limited-time opportunity to correct or refresh your documents without spending a rupee. With more services now requiring accurate Aadhaar details for verification, it’s best to update online before June 18

and keep your identity documents in sync.
