The owner of an Aadhaar Card will be able to identify themselves at any place in India irrespective of the purpose. There are centres across India where you can get Aadhaar Card and enrolment is free. You can get application forms from these enrolment centres. However, if you wish to get it done through the internet then you can visit the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) website.<\/p>\n

Process of online application<\/h2>\n

The first thing that you need to do is visit the link – https:\/\/appointments.uidai.gov.in\/<\/a> – from where you will get the online application form. Then, you will need to fill up details such as name, phone number and e-mail address. You need to be careful in providing the phone number since it is the one that will be used\u00a0for\u00a0future purposes, especially when you have to make any changes to the personal\u00a0details given online. UIDAI suggests you to be\u00a0fully careful at the time of\u00a0filling up the details. If you are not attentive then there could be several unwanted issues later on till the time\u00a0you receive the card.<\/p>\n

After filling up the personal details you need to select an enrolment centre and decide the date and time when you would want an appointment over there. All this can be done on the aforementioned link itself. It is obligatory that you visit the said centre so that you can get yourself registered for the card. This needs to be done irrespective of whether\u00a0you have filled up the form online or not.<\/p>\n

Important things to remember while visiting the enrolment centre<\/h3>\n

You should carry\u00a0all your necessary documents such as age proof, residence proof and voter ID card when you go to the enrolment centre. This will make sure that you do not face any unnecessary delays or\u00a0problems in the process of enrolment and the whole task\u00a0gets done smoothly. You need to remember that when you are getting registered, you need to provide proof of your identity and address in order to substantiate your application. You can visit the UIDAI website and find out for yourself the documents that can act as identity proof. There are 18 documents that can serve the purpose.<\/p>\n

As far as address is concerned there are 33 options that you can choose from. The officers at the said registration centre will take your photo, iris scan and fingerprints that will become part of the Aadhaar database. UIDAI includes such data because these are unique to everyone \u2013 your iris cannot be the same as anyone else\u2019s! This unique data will help you get identified in the future. As soon as the process gets over, you will be able to cross-check\u00a0all the details provided by you to ensure that they have been entered correctly. After the application and registration process gets over your Aadhaar Card will be sent to you by post. It normally takes around 2-3 months for the card to get made and sent to the beneficiary.<\/p>\n
