Aadhaar card of children is now being sought for admission in school. If the parents have not made the child’s Aadhaar card, then the school is asking them to get the Aadhaar card made. Aadhar card has become very important in today’s time.
In such a situation, according to UIDAI, there is no money to update the details of children. Neither do you need any documents. The parents of the child can go to the nearby Aadhaar center and update their child’s details. For this, you will also get information about the Aadhaar center around your home from the UIDAI website, where you have to update the details of the child.

If your child is over 5 years old
To get Aadhaar card for a child above 5 years of age, a child’s birth certificate, school ID card and a bonafide certificate are to be placed on the letterhead of the institute. The child’s fingerprint, Irish scan and photo will be taken at the base center. This information will be updated again when the child is 15 years old.
