UIDAI update: Learn how to alter your address and the extended deadline for updating your Aadhaar data online

Aadhaar Card ‘free’ document updates have an extended deadline of March 14, 2024, which is already three months away. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) had originally set December 14 as the deadline. The government agency has recommended that individuals should file for document revisions if they need to change the address on their Aadhaar card.

“Office memorandum” issued by UIDAI stated: “It is decided to extend the facility for 3 more months, i.e. from 15.12.2023 to 14.03.2024, based on the positive response from the residents.” As a result, till March 14, 2024, the document updating feature will be available for free via the myAadhaar portal at myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in.”

Updates may be made in both online and offline modes. In order to finish the update while offline, you need to visit an Aadhaar center. For that, there will be a service charge of Rs 50.
