Port Blair, Oct. 29: In order to encourage more residents to update their documents in Aadhaar, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) had allowed the residents to update their documents in Aadhaar online through my Aadhaar portal free of cost upto 14th September, 2023. Now, after receiving positive response from the residents, UIDAI has decided to extend the facility of free document update in Aadhaar for another 3 months i.e. from 15th September, 2023 to 14th December, 2023.

The UIDAI has also encouraged residents to upload Proof of Identity (PoI) and Proof of Address (PoA) documents to revalidate their demographic details, especially if Aadhaar was issued 10 years back and never got updated. This will help in improving ease of living, better service delivery and enhancing authentication success rate.

Residents of Andaman & Nicobar Islands can login https://myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in/ using their Aadhaar Number and update their Aadhaar Card free of cost. In case of any difficulty, may visit nearest Aadhaar Centre for document update by paying a fee of Rs. 50/-.
