Aadhaar Services from UIDAI

The Aadhaar card is now a required document for proving both identity and address. Being up to the task, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) offers Aadhaar services that go beyond just providing Indian citizens with an Aadhaar number.

In order to provide Aadhaar applicants and cardholders with prompt resolution of their concerns and issues, UIDAI offers a variety of offline and online services.

Different types of Aadhaar Card Services

Cardholders can access all Aadhaar-related services through a dedicated database maintained by UIDAI, the organisation responsible for issuing Aadhaars. To find enrollment centres, check the status of their application, and download their e-Aadhaar card, Aadhaar applicants can visit the website.

The list below includes information on the extra services UIDAI offers.

• Verifying Aadhaar Number
• Verifying Email/Mobile Number
• Locking/Unlocking Biometrics
• Checking Aadhaar and Bank Account Linking Status
• Aadhaar Authentication History

You can access the UIDAI website’s Aadhaar card services from anywhere in India. This self-service portal has been made available by the Indian government and UIDAI so that residents can use the Aadhaar card services at their own pace and convenience.

Verifying Aadhaar Number

UIDAI is the organisation that issues the 12-digit Unique Identification Number (UID/Aadhaar number). Cardholders have the option to verify the accuracy of their UID number using their Aadhaar number. Holders of Aadhaar cards can confirm their UID by taking the steps listed below.

Visit UIDAI’s official website.

Click “Verify an Aadhaar Number” under “My Aadhaar” to do so. The choice is located under “Aadhaar Services.”

There will be a new page. In the space provided, enter the 12-digit UID number.

Type the security code in.

Click the “Reset” button in the top right corner of the page if the Aadhaar number was entered incorrectly. In that case, press the “Verify” button.

The status of the Aadhaar number will be disclosed to cardholders. Along with the cardholder’s age range, gender, registered mobile number, and the state where the Aadhaar card was issued, the page will also include information about these factors.

Aadhaar card holders can use this service to confirm the email address and mobile phone number they provided at the time of enrollment. Individuals must go to the official UIDAI page and follow these instructions to verify the mobile number and email provided at the time of Aadhaar enrolment:
