How To Make Online Appointment For Aadhaar Seva Kendra?

Similar to Passport Seva Kendras that purely deliver services related to passport, the central government started Aadhaar Seva Kendras in 2019. These centres are one-stop places for all Aadhaar-related services and also have online appointment bookings similar to that for Passport.

Users are also making comparisons of Aadhaar appointment services to the appointment facility offered by Passport department and have appreciated the quick services offered by these centres. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has retweeted one such appreciation post from a user.

Try online appointment at Aadhaar Seva Kendra near home. This is similar to Passport Seva Kendra and very well organised with tokens and waiting chairs. Have visited one to change mobile for my daughter and was pleasantly surprised to be out in 20 minutes. Very impressive!

Other users replied to the tweet in agreement.

You can also try the online appointment service from UIDAI that allows you to avail services at the nearest UIDAI-run Aadhaar Seva Kendra or registrar-run Aadhaar Seva Kendra of your choice.

With this appointment, you will have a good idea on when to visit the centre rather than wait in a queue at the bank or a post office.
