UIDAI Extends Free Aadhaar Update

New Delhi: Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) extended its free-of-cost Aadhaar update scheme till December 14.

The date was earlier set to expire on September 14, following which uploading documents on myAadhaar portal and making changes in profile required a fee.

"UIDAI extends free online document upload facility till 14th December 2024," UIDAI said in a post on social media platform X.

The move is set to "benefit millions of Aadhaar number holders", it added.

The UIDAI has been encouraging people to keep documents updated in their Aadhaar, especially those who have not updated their Aadhaar cards in over a decade. They can review and amend their information if necessary.

“This free service is available only on #myAadhaar portal,” the agency posted.
