New Delhi: Aadhaar is one of the most sought after identity and address proof documents across the nation. UIDAI, the agency which oversees the 12-digit ID verification platform, on Thursday, shared the mechanism to get demographics or biometric details updated, if needed.

Documents to change details in Aadhar
Whether you update one field or many, charges for the Aadhaar Update will be Rs 100 (if you are also updating biometrics) and Rs 50 (if only demographics details are being updated), said UIDAI in a tweet.

In order to do so , the user will need to submit documents to change crucial demographic information such as name or address or date of birth. The UIDAI listed as many as 32 documents that are accepted as proof of identity, 45 as proof of address and 15 as documents as proof of birth. Any of these documents can be used to update the information.
Changes which can be made without documents
Some changes in Aadhar can be made without any documents for verification whatsoever. For example, mobile number, photo on Aadhaar card can be changed without any document. Also, biometrics, gender and email ID can also be updated without changing details.
Users can also book an appointment at the Aadhaar Seva Kendra to avail services such Aadhaar enrolment, updating name, address, gender, mobile number, email ID, date of birth or biometrics. Appointments can be made at only some Seva Kendras as of now.
However, it is to be noted that UIDAI places restrictions on the number of times changes can be made to Aadhaar so one needs to make these changes very carefully.
