How to update your mobile number on Aadhaar
Drafted from official sources; final human double-check pending — details could shift slightly.
Unlike an address change, updating your Aadhaar-linked mobile number isn't a self-service online task — UIDAI's site doesn't currently offer it as an online item, only address update gets that treatment.
You'll need to visit an Aadhaar Seva Kendra or enrolment centre in person, where biometric verification confirms it's really you making the change.
Can this be done online?
Requires a physical visit
Government fee
₹75 — Demographic (mobile) updateFree if bundled with a biometric update at the same visit. Fee is confirmed; still NEEDS_REVIEW because we couldn't independently confirm on a live UIDAI FAQ that mobile update genuinely has no online path — that's inferred from the current site's navigation structure, not a quoted policy statement.
Frequently asked questions
Can I update my mobile number through the myAadhaar app or website?
No — as of our last check, only address update is offered as genuine online self-service; a mobile number change routes to an in-person visit.
What if I've lost access to my old number entirely and can't get an OTP?
That's exactly the situation this in-person process is for — you don't need the old number to visit a centre and update it.
Is it free?
It's typically free if bundled with a biometric update at the same visit — check the current fee on the plan below.
