The Aadhaar card is one of the most significant documents in India. It includes biometric data like fingerprints and photos, demographic data like name, age, and date of birth, and a 12-digit unique identification number issued by the UIDAI (Unique Identification of India). It is connected to an active mobile number and email address and acts as proof of identity and address for all Indians. Maintaining the Aadhaar's data up to date is essential for proper authentication. Let's examine the procedures for changing the date of birth on this page of an Aadhaar card.

How to Update DOB in Aadhaar Card Online

Updates to an Aadhaar card's date of birth could previously be made offline at authorised enrolment centres or online via the myAadhaar website. Currently, the only thing modified online on the UID card is the address; all other changes are offline. Accordingly, you can only update your date of birth on your Aadhaar card by going to the official Aadhaar enrolment centre.


Documents Needed to Change DOB in Aadhaar Card 

If you wish to modify the date of birth on your Aadhaar card, you must have the following documents on hand.

  • A passport


  • Service photo ID cards issued by the federal government, state governments, PSUs, regulatory bodies, or statutory bodies.


  • Photo IDs for pensioners, freedom fighters, and pension payment orders issued by the federal government, state governments, PSUs, regulatory bodies, and statutory bodies.


  •  A mark sheet or certificate from an educational institution or board that has received accreditation.


  •  Transgender Identity Card/Certificate: Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act of 2019.


  •  A birth certificate given by the authorised state authority.


Changing the DOB on the Aadhaar Twice

No, the date of birth is not altered twice in Aadhaar. However, an exception handling procedure allows you to request a second change to your UID card date of birth. Again, only if you have legal justifications can you do this. Using the exception handling procedure, follow these steps to modify your Aadhaar card's date of birth for the second time.


  • Step 1: Bring the necessary paperwork and the application form from the local "Aadhaar Kendra."


  • Step 2: You can make a second request to change the date of birth on your Aadhaar card at the appropriate regional office. A UIDAI Standard Certificate may be issued by an EPFO officer, the head of an esteemed educational institution, or a gazetted officer of the group "A" category.


  • Step 3: Your request to modify the date of birth on your Aadhaar card is reviewed a second time after it has been analysed.


Conclusion

Aadhaar is an essential document in India, so it's necessary to have the correct date of birth on it. Since the Aadhaar Card facilitates simple financial transactions, checks, and access to government programs, incorrect date of birth can pose challenges in these processes. Thanks to the Unique Identification of India (UIDAI), this process of changing the date on the Aadhaar Card is now simple for holders. If you want to do the same, follow these simple steps to complete the process without hassles.
