Aadhar Card For Non-Resident Indians(NRIs)

The Aadhar card is a government document for which a resident Indian can apply and obtain at any of the Aadhaar Enrollment Centres. It is a 12 digit identification number issued to an individual after receiving demographic information such as name, date of birth, residential address, biometric information such as fingerprints, iris scan and so on. It consists of random numbers which have no relationship to any personal details of the individual.

Earlier, the UIDAI used to follow the rules as per the Aadhar Act of 2016 which mentioned that aadhar can be issued only to the resident Indians. As per the act, the resident refers to an individual who has been residing in India for a period of equal to or more than 180 days in the 12 months immediately before the applying for the Aadhaar number.

But the 2019 Union Budget proposed to issue Aadhaar card to NRIs on arrival, who hold Indian passports without waiting for the mandatory 180 days.

The Aadhaar Card is linked with the centralized databases and mainly contains the demographic and biometric details of an individual which plays a key role in identifying the individual.
