Today marks the final day to avail of the Unique Identification Authority of India’s (UIDAI) free Aadhaar document update service — a facility that allows Indian citizens to correct errors in their Aadhaar cards without paying any fee. The deadline for this limited-time offer is June 14, 2025, and those who haven’t updated their Aadhaar yet are urged to act immediately.
What Is the Free Update Facility?
UIDAI launched the free online update service to help Aadhaar holders correct or update important details such as their name, date of birth, address, and gender. The facility, available exclusively through UIDAI’s official portal myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in, allows users to upload updated Proof of Identity (PoI) and Proof of Address (PoA) documents at no cost.
Previously extended several times, today is officially the last day for this free update initiative.
Why Updating Aadhaar Is Important
Your Aadhaar card serves as a vital document for verifying identity and address in India. It’s used for:
-
Opening and managing bank accounts
-
Accessing government welfare schemes and subsidies
-
Filing income tax returns
-
Obtaining mobile SIM cards
-
Verifying for school, college, or job applications
Outdated or incorrect Aadhaar information can lead to rejection of services or delays in benefits, making timely updates crucial.
How to Update Your Aadhaar Card Online for Free
Here’s a step-by-step guide to updating your Aadhaar documents online:
-
Log in using your Aadhaar number and the OTP sent to your registered mobile number
-
Click on “Update Document”
-
Upload the required PoI and PoA documents in the correct format
-
Submit the request — no payment is required
Note: This free facility is only available online. Physical Aadhaar centers may still charge a nominal fee.

Here are some commonly accepted documents:
For Proof of Identity (PoI):

Facing Trouble? Visit an Aadhaar Center
While the free update is an online-only service, if you’re unable to access the internet or face difficulties with the portal, you can visit a nearby Aadhaar Seva Kendra. However, standard service charges may apply there.
Final Call to Action
With June 14, 2025, being the final day, UIDAI has advised all citizens to verify and update their Aadhaar details now to avoid issues in future verifications or service access. This is your last chance to make essential changes — completely free of cost.
