According to the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), an Aadhaar<\/a> cardholder can update their name on the Aadhaar card only twice in a lifetime. However, if a person wants to update their name more than twice due to some unavoidable circumstances like marriage, they need to visit the UIDAI’s Regional Office (RO) to get their name updated. In such cases, the UIDAI may allow the person to update their name more than twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to note that the UIDAI allows changes to an Aadhaar cardholder’s name only if there is a valid reason for the change, such as marriage or legal name change. The name on the Aadhaar card should match the name on the supporting documents such as a passport, PAN card<\/a>, or voter ID card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To update the name on the Aadhaar card, the cardholder needs to fill in the Aadhaar Update\/Correction Form, attach the necessary supporting documents, and submit the form to the nearest Aadhaar Enrolment Centre or Aadhaar Seva Kendra. The updated Aadhaar card with the new name is usually issued within 90 days from the date of submission of the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In summary, an Aadhaar cardholder can update their name on the Aadhaar card twice in a lifetime. However, if there is a valid reason for updating the name more than twice, the person can visit UIDAI’s Regional Office to get their name updated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
