Aadhaar is a 12-digit identity number for Indian residents, obtained using their biometric and demographic details.

Residents’ Aadhaar numbers are unique to their biometrics, reducing the risk of fraud and fake identities.

1. Visit https://myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in/ and log in using your Aadhaar number and the one-time password (OTP) sent to your registered mobile number.
2. Review your identity and address details displayed on your profile.
