How many times can I change my Aadhaar name?+

UIDAI allows an Aadhaar name update only twice in a lifetime, so make sure the new spelling is final and matches your other documents.

The standard fee is โ‚น50, payable online or at an Aadhaar Seva Kendra.

Can I correct my Aadhaar name fully online?+

Minor spelling changes can often be done online at the myAadhaar portal with OTP.

Larger changes may need a visit to an Aadhaar Seva Kendra with proof.

Why does my name correction keep getting rejected?+
