When you need it

Your name or date of birth is wrong on your Aadhaar card — a spelling error made at enrolment, a name that changed on marriage, or a date of birth recorded from an estimate rather than a document — and the Unique Identification Authority of India's own correction process, through the Self Service Update Portal, the myAadhaar portal, or an Aadhaar Seva Kendra, asks you to submit a document it accepts as proof, together with a signed declaration of what the correct particulars are and how the error arose. Aadhaar enrolment and update is governed by the Aadhaar (Targeted Delivery of Financial and Other Subsidies, Benefits and Services) Act, 2016 and the regulations made under it, which apply identically wherever in India the correction is made; what differs between Punjab and Chandigarh is only where this declaration is notarised, if the update centre you use asks for a notarised copy rather than a plain signed one.

Not for: adding or correcting a mobile number or email address, which needs no supporting document and no declaration; correcting an address, which Aadhaar allows on a simple self-declaration without independent proof in defined circumstances; or a first Aadhaar enrolment, which is a different process entirely.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

A plain declaration of this kind carries no fixed stamp duty of its own, and the Unique Identification Authority of India does not require it on stamp paper. Where the update centre or a notary insists on stamp paper before attesting it — some do, as a matter of local practice rather than law — it is bought as a non-judicial stamp paper of Rs. 10, the smallest denomination generally sold at a treasury, an SHCIL e-stamp counter or an authorised stamp vendor in Punjab or in Chandigarh. Figures checked 19 September 2026.

Registration

This declaration is submitted to the Unique Identification Authority of India for its own records and is not an instrument the Registration Act, 1908 requires to be registered, in Punjab or in Chandigarh. Keep the acknowledgement and the Update Request Number the portal or the centre issues — that number, not this declaration, is what tracks the correction.

Notarisation

The Self Service Update Portal and the myAadhaar portal accept this declaration with a plain signature, uploaded together with the supporting document — no notarisation is asked for online. An Aadhaar Seva Kendra or update centre, or a bank or post office acting as an enrolment agency, may ask for it to be notarised before a Notary Public or an Oath Commissioner appointed for Punjab or for the Union Territory of Chandigarh; ask the particular centre before the appointment.

Witnesses

Neither the online update channels nor an update centre ask for an attesting witness to this declaration, in Punjab or in Chandigarh; the supporting document itself is what the Authority checks the correction against.

AADHAAR NAME / DATE OF BIRTH CORRECTION DECLARATION

1. THE ERROR

1.1 Correction of the name only is required in my Aadhaar record.

1.2 The name currently printed on my Aadhaar card is "Harpreet Singh Dhilon", which is incorrect. My correct name, as given above, is "Harpreet Singh Dhillon".

4. DECLARATION

4.1 Every statement made above is true to my own knowledge and belief. I have not sought this correction to assume a false identity or to defeat any other law, and I have not concealed any material fact.

4.2 I am aware that the Unique Identification Authority of India may verify this declaration and the supporting document against its own records before accepting the correction, may ask for an additional or a different document, and that furnishing false information for inclusion in the Aadhaar database is an offence under the Aadhaar (Targeted Delivery of Financial and Other Subsidies, Benefits and Services) Act, 2016.

VERIFICATION

Verified at Patiala on 3 April 2026 that the contents of paragraphs 1 to 4 above are true and correct to my own knowledge, and that nothing material has been concealed.
