Aadhaar Card: The government has made changes to the last date for free Aadhaar updates. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), which issues Aadhaar, has extended the facility for uploading documents online for free until June 14, 2025 to benefit millions of Aadhaar holders. Earlier, the deadline for free updates was initially set for June 14, 2024, which was later extended to September 14, 2024, and then to December 14, 2024.
Those planning to update their Aadhaar information now have time until June 14, 2025. Earlier, the window for free updates was scheduled to close on December 14, 2024.
Here’s the Step-by-Step Process to Update Aadhaar Online:
- Visit the Aadhaar Self-Service Portal on UIDAI’s official website.
- Log in using your Aadhaar number, captcha code, and the OTP sent to your registered mobile number.
- Go to the document update option and verify your existing details.
- From the dropdown list, select the appropriate document type and upload scanned copies of the original documents for verification.
- Don’t forget to note down the Service Request Number. This will help you track the status of your Aadhaar update request.

Why is Updating Aadhaar Important?
If there are any changes required in your Aadhaar database, updating it now will help you avoid problems in the future. For children, it’s important to remember that if you had your child’s Aadhaar issued when they were below 5 years of age, you must update their biometric records at least twice – once after they turn 5 years old and again when they turn 15 years old.
