โ“ Common questions

Can I correct my Aadhaar gender online?+

No. Gender, like name and date of birth, cannot be changed online. You need to visit an Aadhaar Seva Kendra.

What do I need to carry?+

Carry your Aadhaar and a supporting identity document in original. If your mobile is not linked, get that added first.

Why does a gender mismatch block my claim?+

Services like EPF and bank KYC cross-check gender against Aadhaar, so a mismatch can stop e-KYC and claim processing until fixed.
