The Aadhaar PVC card is a compact, credit-card-sized, laminated version of Aadhaar with enhanced security features like a QR code, hologram, and ghost image. It's more durable than a printed paper Aadhaar and fits easily in a wallet. You can order it online for a small fee and it's delivered by post.
