Frequently asked questions
What is the e-Aadhaar PDF password?
The first 4 letters of your name as printed on the Aadhaar, in capital letters, followed by your year of birth. For example, Suresh Kumar born in 1990 uses SURE1990. If your PDF has no password, it opens straight away.
Is my Aadhaar or password uploaded?
No. The PDF is opened and the sheet is made in your browser, and nothing is sent to a server. The password is used only to open the file in that tab and isn't stored.
Will it print at the real card size?
Yes, if you print at 100% or Actual size. Options such as Fit to page or Scale to fit shrink the page, and the card comes out smaller than 85.6 × 54 mm.
Why do I need to adjust the boxes?
UIDAI prints the cut-out card near the bottom of page 1, but its position changes a little between versions of the e-Aadhaar. The boxes start at the usual place, so check that each one covers its side of the card.
Which layout should I choose?
Side by side puts the front and back next to each other, touching, so you can cut around the pair, fold it in the middle and laminate it. One above the other leaves a gap, so you cut out each side and stick them back to back.
Is this printout the same as a PVC Aadhaar card?
No. It's a paper copy of your e-Aadhaar, which UIDAI says is as valid as the physical card. A PVC card can be ordered from UIDAI.
