Aadhaar cardholders can now change their photo by visiting their nearest Aadhaar enrollment centre, according to the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). One of the most common complaints among 12-digit unique identification number holders is dissatisfaction with their Aadhaar Card photograph. According to UIDAI, Aadhaar cardholders must go to their nearest Aadhaar enrollment centre and request a photo change with an Aadhaar representative. The representative at the Aadhaar enrollment centre will charge a fee of Rs 25 plus GST for changing your photograph. Once the Aadhaar cardholder pays the photograph change fee, the representative there will change the photograph. The Aadhaar representative will also issue the Aadhaar cardholder an acknowledgement slip with an Update Request Number (URN).
