As per the Aadhaar Enrolment and Update Regulations, 2016, individuals holding an Aadhaar card must update their identity and address proof once every ten years from the date of Aadhaar enrolment.
In line with this, the UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India) has been advising people to update their Aadhaar card details — specifically their Proof of Identity (PoI) and Proof of Address (PoA) — if they haven’t done so in the last ten years. Updating these documents helps reduce Aadhaar-related fraud and ensures demographic data remains accurate.
