Thread: How to Change Your Aadhaar Mobile Number (As of 22 July 2025)

1/ Your Aadhaar‑linked mobile number cannot be changed online — biometric verification is mandatory at a physical centre.

2/ You must book an appointment online at UIDAI's official site (My Aadhaar → Get Aadhaar → Book Appointment). Select your city, enter OTP, Aadhaar details and pick “New Mobile Number.”

3/ On the appointment day, go to the selected Aadhaar Seva Kendra or enrolment centre with the appointment confirmation.

4/ At the centre:

Submit the update form (mentioning mobile number update)

Provide biometric authentication (fingerprint/iris)

Pay the ₹50 service fee You’ll receive an acknowledgment slip with a URN (Update Request Number) to track your request. 

5/ Track your update status using the URN on UIDAI’s website: My Aadhaar → Get Aadhaar → Check Aadhaar Update Status. Select URN, enter captcha & see the status.

6/ Timeline: Typically, 90% of updates complete within 30 days.

7/ Why update your mobile number?

A registered mobile number is essential for OTP‑based services like banking, government subsidies, pensions, insurance, and telecom KYC. 

8/ Fees: Offline biometric updates like mobile number changes cost ₹50. Certain updates—name, address, etc.—may cost more under Aadhaar Regulations.
