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.

Hi, I reside in USA and hold OCI status. I am applying for Adhar card when I am visiting India end of this month. My question is what kind of document NRI can provide to support "Relationship", as none of listed documents exist for me. Would a USA tax return or even a joint bank statement (USA or HDFC) work? Also may I use passport for validation of birth certificate/identity and USA driving license for birth certificate/identity (passport is ok for both, but I assume you will not accept one document to support two items). Also I am planning to apply online and bring printed application with me. Will it speed up process, when I personally visit the office? Thanks in advance.

Can I get address change done on line in my Aadhaar card and how

2017-Oct-27T19:16:36
I am employed in Delhi for more than 15years in a pvt job, but my permanent address is in Kerala. I was unable to enrol in Delhi as the landlords refuse to make a proper registered lease (pakka lease)--they make it "kachha". I don't have a gas connection, ration card or electricity connection or any other document. Even the local landlords and toughs refuse to allow us to enrol to vote here (in Delhi)-- even though I am an Indian citizen and have a voter ID in Delhi. Therefore, I had to enrol for Aadhar in Kerala. I haven't received my original Aadhar letter at my permanent address in Kerala, but I have enrolled and received my Aadhar number (also downloaded e-Aadhar). However, I am unable to to use my Aadhar to get a SIM in my own name here, where the connection is required. All my telephone connections are in the name of relatives. How can I get my own original Aadhar card? The telecom companies refuse to give us a connection without the "original" Aadhar letter.

My wife and I are citizen of USA with OCI (Overseas Citizen of India) card. We are non-residents of India as per Income tax rules as we do not stay more than nnn days in India. But we have NRE and NRO accounts where the tax is deducted on interest. We file Tax returns to get TDS back. The income tax department now requires that we have Asdhaar cards linked to our PAN Card to file Tax returns. 1. Can Foreign Nationals with OCI card eligible to get Aadhaar card? 2. Can we apply for Aadhaar cards with Foreign address? Can our OCI card be the identity and address proof? 3. Is the Passport acceptable for identity and Date of Birth? Please advise.
