This article explains how you can now change your mobile number linked to your Aadhaar card using the new app, with no documents needed.
Now, it’s easier than ever to change the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar card. The government has introduced this feature in the new Aadhaar app, allowing you to do it from the comfort of your home. Soon, you will also be able to update your address, name, and email ID through the same app.
The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has announced this digital service. The best part is that you won’t need any documents to make these changes. Although updating your address has been possible since 2016, the new app makes the process simpler and more accessible.
For users, this means a quick and hassle-free way to update their details. The process can be completed in just a few minutes without visiting any office. This feature is especially useful for people living in remote areas, senior citizens, and those who frequently move.
Here are some key points to remember: First, download the Aadhaar app and log in using your Aadhaar number. An OTP will be sent to your registered mobile number for verification. Then, set a 6-digit PIN for future logins. To change your mobile number, go to ‘My Aadhaar Update’ and follow the instructions provided in the app.
Once you log in, you can update your mobile number by verifying with OTPs and face authentication. After entering your new mobile number and paying a fee of Rs. 75, your update will be complete. Keep an eye out for further updates regarding address, name, and email ID changes in the app.
