Changing the name after marriage is not a mandatory legal requirement. However, most women opt for it. In that case, they must change their details in vital documents. Aadhaar is one of the most significant proofs of identification; hence, it is necessary to update the details therein. It is a simple process and does not take long.
Read along to learn how to change the name on the Aadhaar card after marriage, along with some other important details.
Follow the steps below to change your name on your Aadhaar card after marriage online:
Step 1 - Visit UIDAI’s official website.
Step 2 - Click on ‘My Aadhaar’ and select ‘Update Demographics Data and Check Status’ from the dropdown menu.
Step 3 - Enter your Aadhaar Number and Captcha and click on ‘Send OTP’.
Step 4 - After verifying the OTP, click on ‘Update Demographics Data’ on the page that opens.
Step 5 - Click on your required options, then click on 'Proceed'.
Step 6 - Provide relevant documents on the next page.
Step 7 - Review your details and click on ‘Submit’.
Step 8 - You will receive an Update Request Number (URN). You can use the URN to track the status of your update request.
This process of changing the name on the Aadhaar card after marriage is similar to that of making any other change in the Aadhaar. Follow the steps mentioned below to change your name on the Aadhaar card:
Step 1 - Visit your nearest Aadhaar Enrolment Centre.
Step 2 - Fill out the Aadhaar Enrolment/Update or Correction form.
Step 3 - Submit the form and valid documents to the Aadhaar Executive.
Step 4 - The Executive will then take your biometric information.
Step 5 - After this, you will have to pay an amount as a fee.
Step 6 - Finally, you will receive an acknowledgement slip containing the acknowledgement number. You can use this number to track the progress of your request.
Individuals need their marriage certificate to change their name on their Aadhaar card. They need to carry an original copy of the certificate which will be scanned and returned to them.
In the absence of the marriage certificate, the following documents can be used as alternatives to change name after marriage:
Proof of marriage issued by the marriage registrar.
Name change certificate that has been legally approved.
Identity certificate consisting of the applicant's photo on a letterhead issued by the Gazette officer.
Aadhaar Enrolment Centres charge a sum of ₹100 to update Aadhaar.
The update process usually takes about 30 days to complete. Applicants can check their progress status using the Update Request Number or URN provided to them.
Changing the name on the Aadhaar card after marriage should be done as soon as possible. This procedure is not lengthy and takes a few days to finish, and causing delay would, in turn, delay other matters that involve Aadhaar verification.
