- Earlier ₹50, now ₹75 (if done separately).
- Free of cost if done along with biometric updates.
- Biometric updates (fingerprints, iris, and photograph):
- Free for children aged 5–7 years.
- Free (one-time only) for teenagers aged 15–17 years.
- For all other cases: ₹125 (earlier ₹100).
- myAadhaar portal updates:
- Uploading identity and address proof documents online will remain free until June 14, 2026.
- However, if the same updates are done at an Aadhaar enrolment centre, a fee of ₹75 will apply (up from ₹50).
Home enrolment service fee
UIDAI has also formalised charges for Aadhaar home enrolment services:
- ₹700 (inclusive of GST) per resident, in addition to the standard update fees.
- If multiple residents at the same address (as per Aadhaar records) opt for the service:
- The first resident will pay ₹700, and
- Each additional resident will be charged ₹350 (inclusive of GST).
First hike in half a decade
This is the first revision in Aadhaar updation charges since 2020, and UIDAI has clarified that the changes are aimed at covering operational costs while continuing to provide digital updates at no cost for a limited period.
