Know all about UIDAI Aadhaar card including its eligibility, documentation requirement, application process, Aadhaar card download, benefits, link with PAN and more.
Aadhaar is considered one of the most referred documents which act as proof of identity and proof of address. In this regard, there is always a question on its security breach and leaking of personal data. For this, the UIDAI has come up with the facility to lock/unlock Aadhaar services online. There are different Aadhaar services offered by the UIDAI such as- Verify Aadhaar, Verify Registered Mobile or e-Mail ID, Retrieve Aadhaar, Generate Virtual ID, Offline Aadhaar Verification, Aadhaar Linking Status, Authentication History, and other related Aadhaar services.
Authentication Limitations:
Once you lock your Aadhaar services, traditional authentication methods using the Aadhaar number will be disabled. Instead, you’ll need to use the Virtual ID (VID) for authentication.
Availability of VID:
Ensure that you possess the latest VID. If not, residents can retrieve their existing VID by sending an SMS with the format ‘RVID Last 4 or 8 digits of UID’ to 1947.
Mandatory VID for UID Lock/Unlock:
Keep in mind that a Virtual ID (VID) is a prerequisite for both locking and unlocking your UID. Make sure you have your VID ready before initiating any lock or unlock requests.
