UIDAI offers Aadhaar cards to all Indian residents, serving as both proof of identity and residence. Aadhaar enrollment is available nationwide, allowing individuals to register and update their Aadhaar details at Aadhaar Enrolment Centers. UIDAI has devised a plan to establish 114 Aadhaar Seva Kendra in 53 cities across India. These centers will be specifically located in metro cities, state capitals, and Union Territories. The Aadhaar Seva Kendras will operate alongside the existing 35,000 Aadhaar Kendra that are managed by banks, post offices, BSNL, and state governments.
To apply for Aadhaar, either for yourself or a family member, you must visit an Aadhaar Enrolment Center. These centers offer various services related to Aadhaar, and the initial enrolment process is free of charge. However, some tasks may have a nominal fee set by UIDAI. Aadhaar enrollment centers come in different forms, such as Aadhaar Seva Kendras (ASKs), Permanent Enrolment Centers, Temporary Enrolment Centers, or Aadhaar Enrolment Camps. The operational timings, facilities, and charges may vary, and individuals can easily locate their nearest center through different means.
Different Types of Aadhaar Enrolment Centers:
1. Aadhaar Seva Kendra (ASK):
Aadhaar Seva Kendras are comprehensive centres directly managed by UIDAI. They offer dedicated Aadhaar enrolment and update services in a modern environment. Operational seven days a week from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., ASKs provide both online Appointment Management System (AMS) and automated Token Management System (TMS) for walk-in residents.
2. Permanent Enrolment Center:
Permanent Enrolment Centres are established within banks and post offices. They provide Aadhaar enrolment and update services on an ongoing basis.
3. Temporary Enrolment Center:
Temporary Enrolment Centres are set up for a limited period. These centres offer both Aadhaar enrolment and update services during their operational timeframe.
4. Aadhaar Enrolment Camp:
Aadhaar Enrolment Camps are temporary centres that operate for a specific duration, such as a month, week, or even a day. They may be established for particular tasks, like linking the biometrics of children aged above 5 years to their Aadhaar card in a specific district.
Facilities Offered at Aadhaar Seva Kendra:
1. Fresh Aadhaar Enrolment: Individuals who were unable to enroll for Aadhaar earlier can get enrolled at the Aadhaar Seva Kendra
2. Retrieval of Aadhaar Number: Cardholders who have lost their Aadhaar card or forgotten their Aadhaar number can visit the ASK to retrieve their Aadhaar number. They can also request a duplicate Aadhaar card. To know more about how to retrieve lost/forgotten Aadhaar Card, CLICK HERE.
