⚠️Before you use this: your Aadhaar photograph cannot be updated online — UIDAI requires an in-person visit to an Aadhaar Enrolment or Seva Kendra for live biometric capture. This tool is for the supporting documents (address, identity, date of birth proof) that genuinely are uploaded online through the myAadhaar portal.

File type and file size — both checked entirely in your browser using plain JavaScript, with nothing ever sent to a server. It does not verify the content of your documents (whether your address proof is current, whether your name matches your other records exactly) — only whether the file itself is in good shape to upload.
Why You Can't Update Your Photo Online
Unlike many document updates that have moved online, your Aadhaar photograph specifically requires in-person biometric capture at an Aadhaar Enrolment or Seva Kendra. This is by design — the photo is tied to your biometric record, not just a file swap. If you only need to update your photo, this tool won't help you skip the appointment, but the documents below are for the parts of an Aadhaar update that genuinely are handled online.
Common Mistakes
Submitting an address proof that doesn't match your claimed new address exactly: Even small discrepancies (a missing flat number, a different pin code format) can cause a rejection.
Blurry phone photos of documents: If any part of the document text isn't clearly legible when zoomed in, it's likely to be rejected.
Assuming photo updates are online: This trips up more people than any other Aadhaar update mistake — check the note at the top of this page before you start.
Expert Tips
Scan rather than photograph where you can: A flatbed scan or a proper scanning app avoids the shadows and skew that make phone photos harder to read.
Keep documents under 2MB each: While not a hard official number we can independently confirm, keeping files modest in size avoids upload friction on most government portals.
Double-check name spelling consistency: Aadhaar updates are commonly rejected over small spelling mismatches between the new document and your existing Aadhaar record.
