Update Mobile Number in Aadhaar

Unlike most other Aadhaar updates, changing or adding your registered mobile number cannot be done online. UIDAI requires this to happen in person at an Aadhaar Seva Kendra or Aadhaar Enrolment Centre, since there's no existing OTP channel to verify a brand-new number and biometric verification is used instead.

Frequently asked questions

Mobile updates rely on OTP verification, but a brand-new number has no prior link to your Aadhaar to send an OTP to. UIDAI therefore requires biometric verification in person at a centre instead.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • • Trying repeatedly to update mobile number through the online portal, not realizing it needs an in-person visit
  • • Visiting without carrying the existing Aadhaar card/number
  • • Not checking whether the centre requires a prior appointment, leading to a wasted trip
  • • Registering a shared or temporary number instead of a personal, long-term one
