How-to apply for Baal Aadhaar Card

Even children under the age of five are given an Aadhaar card, known as a Baal Aadhar Card. However, the requirements for applying for it are rather different. The Aadhar card issuing organisation, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), has modified

the method for issuing Aadhaar cards to children.

Parents can now apply for their child’s Aadhaar card simply showing the hospital where the child was born the birth certificate or slip.

Children under the age of five are eligible for Baal Aadhaar, but under the new law, they will not need to give fingerprints from their retina and five fingers.

According to the UIDAI, biometrics are no longer required for children under the age of five.

The biometric will be required when the child reaches the age of five. After that, a child Aadhar card will be issued, similar to the main Aadhaar card.
