UIDAI Sets New Aadhaar Enrolment, Updates Rules; Check All The Details Here

Aadhaar Update: UIDAI has issued separate forms for the residents and non-resident individuals (NRIs) to enrol as well as update the Aadhaar Card

Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) announced fresh guidelines for enrolment and updating of Aadhaar cards on Tuesday. The UIDAI has shared new forms for updating and enrolling for Aadhaar card, according to a The Economic Times report. The authority has issued separate forms for the residents and non-resident individuals (NRIs) to enrol as well as update the Aadhaar Card. According to the UIDAI, these new guidelines have been made with the aim of making the whole process of updating and enrolling for the Aadhaar Card easier.

Updated Aadhaar Rules

As per the new rules, Aadhaar card information can now be updated in the Central Identities Data Repository (CIDR) by visiting the nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra or via the Mobile application and UIDAI website.

According to the old 2016 rule, an Aadhaar card holder can only update their address via online mode, and for any other details update, they were required to visit the nearby enrollment centre.

New Forms For Aadhaar Card Enrolment

New forms have replaced the existing ones for Aadhaar enrollment and updating Aadhaar details. 

Form 1 will be used for the Aadhaar card enrolment of both residents and non-residents (18 years of age and older with evidence of address in India). The same group of people can update their Aadhaar details using the same form.

Form 2 will be for NRIs having address proof outside India.

Form 3 will be used to enrol children aged between 5 years and above but less than 18 years (resident or NRI having permanent Indian address).

Form 4 will be used for NRI children having addresses outside of India.

Form 5 will be used for residents or NRI children (having Indian address) below 5 years of age.

Form 6 will be used for NRI children (with outside India address) below 5 years of age.

Form 7 will be used by a resident foreign national above 18 years of age. A foreign passport, valid long-term visa, OCI Card, and Indian visa are mandatory for enrolment in this category. Having an email ID is compulsory as well.

Form 8 will be for resident foreign nationals below 18 years of age.

Form 9 is notified by the UIDAI for cancellation of the Aadhaar number upon attaining 18 years of age.

Important Point In New Rule

According to the new form, only the year of birth will be printed/placed on the Aadhaar card if the individual's age is declared (i.e., there is no documentary verification of date of birth) or approximate. Therefore, one must present official documentation to get their entire date of birth printed on their Aadhaar card.

Updating Aadhaar Documents 

The new rule also states that an Aadhaar number bearer should update their documents 10 years after the generation date of the Aadhaar number. Updating the Aadhaar number and documents can be done online, through the UIDAI website or mobile application, or in person at the enrolment centre.
