AADHAAR Card Documents Required

UIDAI accepts several "Proof of Identity", "Proof of Address" and "Proof of Date of Birth" documents for AADHAAR card. Below you will find a nationally valid list of supported AADHAAR card documents. You will need to carry the original AADHAAR card documents to the AADHAAR card center for cross verification. Your original documents will be returned back to you immediately after verification with corresponding xerox copies at the center.


You will need just 1 document for "Proof of Identity", 1 document for "Proof of Address" and 1 document for "Proof of Date of Birth". Please take 1 xerox copy of each of the supporting AADHAAR card documents you are submitting for AADHAAR card and submit it along with the AADHAAR card application form.

Also note that you are not required to carry your photographs, as your picture will be taken right at the AADHAAR card center (the entire process is free of cost).

Small kids may not have any address proof; in that case submit your own address proof document copy for them.

I live in Australia and just found on your website that being NRI I am eligible to get Aadhar card. Last time when I was in India, I was told I cannot get the same and I have present to the proof of address in India or Ration Card. However, your website clearly proves that NRI and foreigners are eligible to get the same. Though at present I have no plans to visit India, but I wish to get the Aadhar card. I have got all the necessary documents, can you please advise how I can send the necessary documents and who can verify the same. Last time PM Shri Modi Jee was in Australia and mentioned in his speech that we can send the documents self-attested as true and correct. Me and my wife willing to get the Aadhar card and as it is now essential to have the same for many purposes, please advise me everything regarding application plus process of sending self attested documents at what address.
