Aadhaar card is very important if you have not applied and apply it and get it.
Keep the Xerox copies, digital copies of Aadhaar Card with you.
Write down Aadhaar Card details with you in few diaries or in your desktop and laptop.

In India, it is very difficult to get what is our rightful right and if we lose it, then again you will get it back without paying money not guaranteed.

I do not want to say that one needs to Pay Bribe for Aadhaar Card.

Aadhaar Card is freely given.

How to get new copy of Aadhaar Card?

The UIDAI has set up a Contact Centre that serves as a single point of contact for the organization.

What if a Resident misplaces his Aadhaar letter /forgets his Aadhaar no.?

The resident can contact the Contact Centre (through phone / letter / email) with the enrolment number and make a request for sending a second letter communicating the Aadhaar number.
This may be a paid service.

In case the Aadhaar number has been used to avail a service or benefit, the resident can contact the agency that offers the same, to obtain the Aadhaar number.


The existing channels of communications are :

1)  
Voice - Helpline number -  1800 180 1947  -

What if the Aadhaar letter does not get delivered to a Resident?

Your Aadhaar number should reach the address provided during enrolment normally within 90 days of enrolment. If not, the resident will need to call/email the UIDAI Contact Centre with the enrolment number.

What can the Resident do if there are spelling mistakes / other demographic error in his/her Aadhaar letter?

During enrolment, even when the data is entered, the resident can see the data entry and is expected to point out errors at this stage.

Prior to finalization and printing of the Enrolment Acknowledgment, one more opportunity is presented to make corrections.

In the event that both opportunities are missed, the demographic correction may be carried out by visiting the enrolment centre within 48 hours of time of enrolment carrying the relevant documents and enrolment slip.
