SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
Dear Resident,
Welcome to Aadhaar family!
The Aadhaar handbook is designed to serve as your guide for Aadhaar. We urge you to read through this
document and absorb the meaning and purpose of Aadhaar.
This handbook will help you understand your Aadhaar. All your questions - from how to get Aadhaar,
and how to get any detail updated in your Aadhaar how you can use your Aadhaar - will be answered
in this handbook. You will also find detailed descriptions of Aadhaar processes and services related to
your Aadhaar. With each section, you will also see QR Codes. You can scan the relevant QR code with any
QR code scanner app in your Smartphone to visit the relevant webpage or watch a video tutorial on the
mentioned service.
Let’s begin your Aadhaar journey with a sneak peek into the world of Aadhaar, the related processes, the
services available for you and the power of this 12-digit number that is unique to you.
1.1 Aadhaar Overview
Aadhaar is a 12-digit unique identification number issue by the Unique Identification Authority
of India (UIDAI) to the residents of India after satisfying the verification process (described in
Section 2) laid down by the Authority.
Aadhaar Handbook for Residents 2021-Ver.2.0 6
Unique Identification Authority of India
Government of India
1.2 Who can get Aadhaar?
ny individual in India, irrespective of age and gender, who is a resident of India, or a non
A
resident Indian (NRI), can enroll to obtain Aadhaar number. For an individual, only one Aadhaar
number is generated, as the uniqueness is achieved through the process of demographic and
biometric de-duplication.
1.2.1. Aadhaar for residents of India
Y ou are eligible for Aadhaar Enrolment if you are a resident of India. This, by definition, means
that you have resided in India for a period or periods amounting in all to one hundred and
eighty-two days (182 days) or more in the twelve months immediately preceding the date of
application for Aadhaar enrolment.
1.2.2 Aadhaar for NRIs
If you are a non-resident Indian (NRI), you can enroll for Aadhaar if you have an Indian Passport.
The mandate of 182 days does not apply for NRIs. You can visit an Aadhaar Enrolment Centre
and enroll for Aadhaar as an NRI. Indian Passport is mandatory as Proof of Identity (PoI) for
NRIs. The applicant may choose to give any other Indian Proof of Address (PoA) from amongst
the documents accepted by UIDAI (see Section 13.1, Annex – I of this handbook).
Indian Passport is mandatory Identity proof for Aadhaar Enrolment of NRIs.
1.3 Features of Aadhaar
1.3.1 Aadhaar is an identifier
Aadhaar is a 12-digit unique ID issued to an individual. Aadhaar uses demographic information
(name, date of birth, gender and address), photograph of the face, fingerprints and iris to identify a
resident. These items of information are mandatory. In addition, you have the option of providing
your mobile phone number and email. We recommend that you provide these details also.
1.3.2 Aadhaar is an ID, nothing more
adhaar number is a proof of identity. It does not confer any right of citizenship or domicile in
A
respect of an Aadhaar number holder. Your Aadhaar is a random number devoid of any intelligence
and it cannot be used to profile people based on caste, religion, income, health and geography.
1.4 Usage of Aadhaar
Aadhaar system provides single source offline/online identity verification across the country for
the residents. Once you enroll, you can use the Aadhaar number to authenticate and establish
your identity multiple times using electronic means or through offline verification, as the case
may be. It eliminates the need for providing identity documents each time you wish to access
services, benefits and subsidies.
Aadhaar provides a portable proof of identity that can be verified through
Aadhaar Authentication online anytime, anywhere.

SECTION 9: P
RIVACY AND SECURITY OF YOUR
AADHAAR DATA
UIDAI follows
highest level
data security protocols
Security of your data is inherent in the design of the Aadhaar project. From having a random number which
does not reveal anything about the individual to other features listed below, UIDAI keeps the interest of the
resident at the centre of its purpose and objectives.
9.1 UIDAI Protecting privacy and information
Collecting limited information: Data collected by UIDAI is limited to the purpose of issuing
•
Aadhaar number, and confirming the identity of Aadhaar number holder. Only basic data
is captured to establish identity – name, date of birth, gender, and address, and biometric
data comprising photograph, ten finger prints and iris scan. Parent’s/guardian’s name is
essential for children but not for others. Mobile number and email id are optional.
• N
o profiling and tracking information collected: The UIDAI policy bars it from collecting
sensitive personal information such as religion, caste, community, class, ethnicity, income
and health status. Profiling of individuals is not possible through the UID system as the
data collected is limited to that required for identification and identity confirmation.
Certified machines with Data Encryption: Aadhaar enrolment/update happens with
•
software provided by UIDAI using certified devices only. The data is encrypted as soon as
it is collected in order to prevent any leak in transit.
Release of information – yes or no response: UIDAI does not reveal personal information
•
in the Aadhaar database. If you use your Aadhaar for verification purpose, the only
Aadhaar Handbook for Residents 2021-Ver.2.0 38
Unique Identification Authority of India

response from UIDAI will be a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to the request.
Convergence and linking of UIDAI information to other databases: Aadhaar database
•
is not linked to any other database, or to information held in other databases. Its only
purpose is to verify a person’s identity at the point of receiving a service, and that too with
the consent of the Aadhaar holder.
9.2 Data Security in CIDR
ata of all Aadhaar holders is safe and secure in the Central Identities Data Repository (CIDR)
D
of UIDAI. The CIDR is guarded both electronically and physically by selected individuals with
required security clearance. The data is secured with the best encryption technologies available
in a highly secure data vault. All access details are properly logged.
UIDAI has strict security and storage protocols in place. The penalties for security violation
are severe, and include penalty for disclosing identity information. Any unauthorized access
to CIDR, including hacking or any tampering with data in the CIDR, also has severe penal
consequences as per the Aadhaar Act, 2016.
